[Wine] VNC/XEPHYR/8bit/256 colour mode and wine

[wine000019]

i did some research about old games on new computers; found a link pointing me to vnc or xephyr; downloaded both, couldnt even get vnc to function, xeph did ok, except for the purpose to which i wanted it for. the game will not even start in wine; its warcraft 2; before i used xeph i could start it until i tried bnet; then colour mode kicked me out; now i cannot start it, whats the deal? also xephyr doesn't work the way the 250 colour workaround on winehq described; so i went to another site and copied there command and ran wine from the new 640x480 window xephyr opened; which gave me a debugging script; not the game.
