[Possibly "snarky" reply deleted. Didn't mean that, but "on second thought ..."]

Since you are running ChromeOS and within that Linux you might encounter different issues. I would take a look at this page for installing WINE on ChromeOS using Linux

I got similar errorts on my Debian 12 install which is using wayland. The errors are about the little configuration window not being able to open. If you las -a your home directory you will see (should anyway) a .wine directory. If so it installed etc

I think the issue is related to graphics drivers. I would first check the link I pasted above.
