I don't think I have the unlimited version, at least it doesn't say anything
like that on the CD. "Error 36" is supposed to tell me that the patch could not
find the game, but I tried it in a VM as well and got the same error.

After comparing the log files of the three possible ways to run SC (in a 24bit
X-Server, in a nested 16bit X-Server, in a full 16bit X-Server), I come to the
conclusion that the nested X-server does not properly support OpenGL - the
error about the wrong bitmap format is also present in a full 16bit session,
but doesn't harm then. That is confirmed by glxinfo saying "Direct rendering:
No" when run in the Xephyr session. The Xephyr homepage confirms: "no GLX
support now". Is there any nested X-Server which does support OpenGL, or a way
to change the depth of a running X-Server? Having to change xorg.conf and
restart the whole X-server whenever I want to play this game is kind of
annoying.
