You can update HeidiSQL to the latest build, which should silence that error dialog. By chance I worked on that error yesterday. But that won't bring you far - the dropdown with the provider names will be empty then. The cause of it are missing MDAC, which you need to install, probably per winetricks:

wget http://winetricks.org/winetricks
chmod +x winetricks
sh winetricks mdac28
sh winetricks native_mdac

That script may be outdated, better search for an up-to-date tutorial.

In fact, I'm already on the latest version. I also installed MDAC and it still didn't work, is there any alternative?

Build 6677 (in your screenshot) is the latest release, but not the latest nightly build. I would recommend to try that once and see what's happening. To get the latest build, go to Help > Check for updates, or download it manually from the download page here.

i solved by running like this:

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 wine ~/Heidi/heidisql.exe
