Wine already comes with DirectX. Why you are trying to install it? What exactly does not work for you? If you need some DLLs from original DirectX, it is better idea to install them with winetricks (run "winetricks dlls list | grep -i directx" to see all available DirectX DLLs), but this is not necessary in most cases.
