I ve installed wine and when I started one program it said: You must set desktop bit depth to 16 BIT before running the game..

I'm not sure where SUSE does it, but typically, this setting can be found in Xorg's config file, which is typically /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

You'll want something like this in it:

Section "Screen"
  DefaultDepth 16
  SubSection "Display"
    Depth 16
  EndSubsection
EndSection

There's a lot of other stuff that should be in that section, too, don't just cut-and-paste.

Gnome usually provides GUI tools to do this too, but I'm not familiar with what SUSE packages for the desktop.

After changes to that file, you need to restart X.

Make sure to back up your existing xorg.conf file first, too, before doing anything!
