Wine 1.2-rc6 crashes when run in 16bpp

Hello all
I, until recently, have been happily running the version of wine in the Ubuntu repositories. Unfortunately, I was having trouble running games that required 16bpp. I eventually found a way around this by creating a next X session in 16bpp, then running wine from this session. Having just upgraded to 1.2-rc6, I am disappointed to find that my wine can no longer be run in 16bpp, nor does it handle the applications correctly when in 24bpp. In 16bpp, whenever I run an application with wine, I get a message similar to this:

Code: Select all

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  1 (X_CreateWindow)
  Serial number of failed request:  1067
  Current serial number in output stream:  1071

I have a nVidia Corporation G94 [GeForce 9600 GT] graphics card, although I am running openGL with the Mesa software drivers, as my Ubuntu 10.04 installation is on a portable hard drive. Any help getting wine to run applications in 16bpp would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Michael.

Hi
Firstly, thanks for your help. However, both my video drivers and openGL libraries are 32-bit (as far as I can tell), so this fix doesn't help me.
