Yahoo Instant Message doesn't work well with Wine. Most people use one of the Linux native programs that can talk to the IM networks instead. Pidgin is a popular one and may already be installed on your computer depending on your distribution. You can tell it the IM account information for Yahoo (and/or if you have them Google, MSN, and a few others) and it will connect and work pretty much as if you were using the regular client.
