--- Comment #29 from jargonautti@hotmail.com 2008-02-09 11:50:09 --- I too have this problem, however: it only occurs in truecolor (24 bpp) mode. If I change the X-server configuration to 16 bpp ("DefaultDepth 16" in the "Screen" section of XF86Config), the game runs just fine. I couldn't test 8 bpp because Gnome wouldn't start then :(.
Correlating this with the fact that Wine spits out error messages about being unable to switch to 8 bpp mode when the game is started, it seems likely that this is a problem with paletted and non-paletted color modes colliding.
Pity that changing X-server's color depth at runtime is impossible, or so all the docs I've found claim; otherwise this would be a simple thing to fix :(.
Oh, and my Wine is version 0.9.54.
