Yes, this 'patch' helps it to start:

I looked at the 'code' (ahem :-) ) and it seems that it checks either for
'PFD_GENERIC_FORMAT' / 'PFD_GENERIC_ACCELERATED' flags depending on some
internal arguments. It loops multiple times on the pixel formats but the
only one it seems to like are the one that are supposedly reported by the
un-accelerated reference driver (so if you installed an ICD you are out of
luck). I did not find out though why it does not like our accelerated ones
though.

Note that it does not start either on my WinXP Pro laptop so well, I guess
this is an application which is VERY picky on the pixel formats it likes and
I hope it will be fixed in a forthcoming patch to the application :-)

A 'work-around' for Wine would be report twice the number of visuals, one set
'generic' and the other 'accelerated' (but well, as some applications like
SeriousSam check for these bits too, no idea if they would like it).
