Summary: Workaround for lack of 8bpp (8-bit, 256 color) support
on 24bpp displays
Product: Wine
Version: 0.9.30.
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: wine-x11driver
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: cshore at wightman.ca
8bpp color (256 color mode) is not available if the X display is set to 24bpp
color. This can be worked around using RealVNC 4 (vnc4server, xvnc4viewer) for
sure and possibly TightVNC or RealVNC 3. With vnc4 if you use the parameter -cc
3 (e.g. vnc4server :2 -cc 3 -geometry 640x480 -localhost, then issue the command
xvnc4viewer :2) you can have a virtual 8bpp display (in the example a 640x480
window with the virtual screen would appear). This is known as PseudoColor
mode in the vnc documentation.
