Direct X does not need to be installed on Wine.  It is built in.  Now, 
are you having a problem with an application that is not addressed in 
the Applications Database?

Steam should run with Wine without installing Direct X.

Now we need some answers to further help you:
1.  What brand of Linux are you using?
2.  What is the version of Wine you are using?
3.  What is the actual error Steam is giving you (and check the 
Applications Database for help with Steam as well)?

Logfiles are not necessary at this point.
