Unity3D freezes on Debian Linux

Question

I just installed Unity3D on Linux (trough Wine). Everything works well (Except some annoying "copying failed" dialogs when I launch the program, but if I click cancel I can continue), I registered, installed fonts, etc. .

But: If I have opened a project & switch from Unity to another program (in my case Iceweasel Browser) & return back, the program stops refreshing / clearing the screen & freezes completely. I tried it a lot of times. If I don't switch the program everything works well, but everytime I minimize Unity I that bug. I don't have any idea why this happens, maybe it's because of the NVIDIA drivers.

Thanks in advance :) -Lukas

Here's a screenshot of the copying bug:

I state this as the answer, because Unity Technologies do not provide a Unity Editor for Linux and this question might get "[Closed]" with reasoning: "Question is off-topic or not relevant".

But Unity can still be run on Linux using Wine. See the community set up wiki page - http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/Running_Unity_on_Linux_through_Wine

Otherwise you may set up a Mac or Windows Virtual Machine on Linux to run the Unity Editor.
