I succeeded running it under Linux.

It turned out the screen resolution had nothing to do with it. It was
the return of -1 for the color depth (see log above) that kept it from
going.

If you comment out the corresponding line in
com.machiatto.outOfSpace.gameMain.GameMain#GetBestDisplayMode
the game starts, even in 1280x1024 resolution.

Some files in oosAppContent are not found due to wrong cases in the
filenames, but i could fix this with some symlinks.  (most Unix
filesystems are case sensitive):
