If you can get that working, and you MUST test that they are actually working in X itself first, then I'd try rerunning the program in Wine and see if Wine will switch to that mode while the program runs. Note that if the program wants a 256 color mode it probably also wants a very low screen resolution, like 640x480. I'd start there if I was going to play with xorg.conf. *Maybe* some advanced Wine user will know how to do all of this in Wine's native configuration but until I heard about that I'd go down this path first. Good luck, Mark
