Unable to find valid display mode

Started with a new XP bottle. Had to install the game by pointing CXGames to the Setup.exe and got an error about being unable to write something with ActiveX. Figured out the copy protection error.

Program starts but then I get the "Unable to find valid display mode." error. Happens with running CXG with a virtual desktop and without.

Googled around a bit and couldn't find anything that successfully addressed this. Any ideas?

Hi,

Feed us a bit more info please...ie; platform/OS version, videocard (and if applicable video drivers)
and of course the exact version of crossover you are using. There's a bit more info over at winehq...see;

http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=3787

Hmmmm...if you could, grab a debug log as well and hoist it to a free public repo (rapidshare or such)
and post the download URL back here so I can look at the error...

Cheers!

Ubuntu 10.04
CXG 9.0.0
GeForce 8800 512MB (G92)
The drivers are refereed to as "version current" but it looks like they are numbered as: 195.36.24-0ubuntu1~10.04

The debug file is so short, I'll just post it:

Hi,

Unfortunately that's not the kind of debug that tells us what we need...see the following;

http://www.codeweavers.com/support/wiki/SubmitTechSupportLog

You'll probably need to upload that log to rapidshare or the like, and post the
download URL back here.

Cheers!
