Oregon Trail 5 and DirectX 8?

[Dan Kegel]

http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=2909
claims that Oregon Trail 5 runs, so
I tried running the free Oregon Trail 5 demo,
http://www.learningcompany.com/jump.jsp?itemID=147&itemType=PRODUCT&RS=1
But it failed to install, saying DirectX 8 was
not installed.  Anyone know what's going on?
Thanks!
