You have to startx before installing Wine.

Either that or as the message says "make sure that $DISPALY is set correctly". You can specify a remove X server, perhaps running on your local machine.

export DISPLAY=:10.0

Will set the DISPLAY variable to the tenth screen on the localhost.

Most of the time, I use screen 0 so the following does work in Linux:
export DISPLAY=:0.0

On a Mac running Leopard or later you will have to detect the Display
and then echo it out. (This is just a generic comment for searches.)

Not being able to run X.org is outside Wine territory - ask on your distro's forum.
