Located the problem.

Video adapter is Riva 128.  (Gateway 400c)

Riva 128 supports depths of 15 (not 16) and 24.

Xubuntu 10.04 uses nv driver which for some inexplicable reason sets color depth to
16, which is 15 as implemented in the RIVA 128.

This color depth causes precisely this error with wine, both 1.42 from
repository and 1.44 from wine ubuntu ppa.

000b:Call user32.CopyImage(00010034,00000001,00000010,00000010,00004000)
ret=54182495

Xubuntu 10.04 uses the new "improved" Xorg which has no xorg.conf file, and
also xfce settings do not provide for setting or reporting color depth, it must
be divined from scrutiny of the Xorg.0.log file.

Workaround is to create an xorg.conf file and set the default depth to
24, see attachment.
