IDirectDrawSurface4_Blt should never fail. If it does, it indicates a problem with your system. You need to give us more information. You need to at least provide us with your command-line parameters (e.g., -fullscreen, -multimonitor, etc.)

Alternatively, you can either use the "-engine 1" command-line parameter (which bypasses DirectDraw), or you can stop using an external window manager (e.g., twm) and start using the "-multiwindow" command-line parameter that launches and internal window manager (and uses GDI instead of DirectDraw).
