Wine Desktop: If the app fails to run, try running it in a fake desktop. It can work around errors, such as

"Error - Unable to set the video mode."

The terminal will say something like "err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsE x No matching mode found 640x480x8 @0! (XRandR)" "no valid modes"

or

X Error of failed request BadPixmap | BadDrawable with games.

This can be set in winecfg for each app since 0.9.61 or from the command line:

wine explorer /desktop=foo,1024x768 somegame.exe

Your getting a direct draw error either the above information will help or setting your video cards drivers in wine will.
