I'm trying to use Wine on my most recently installed system, Mint 22.1 Xfce.
I've installed WineHQ stable v10.
It works very well for several programs, mostly old stuff from my Win XP days, that I like to still be able to use: PDF24 Creator, Mp3tag, Photofiltre7, and a few others.
But it doesnt go far with a game I particularly like, Virtual Skipper 5. This game is still available in its latest (and free) version, Vsk5Online.
The installation goes smoothly. However, when I run it, I get the message "Could not find Directx9," and it doesn't go any further. However, the d3dx9 dlls were successfully installed in .wine/drive_c/windows/system32.
Then, I tried to run the command via the console:

And it works! So at least that rules out the possibility of a hardware problem.
Some information about my Mint 22 system :
