Say no more. If you have not read that post completelly I strongly suggest you do! WINE DOES NOT SUPPORT AND WILL NOT SUPPORT native DX! If you installing it it - you are on YOUR OWN. DO NOT ask help with that here or anywhere else on winehq!

Remove ~/.wine directory and DO NOT install native DX. If you need help with that blogpost - ask it's author not here!
