In the window that opens you choose the "Settings" - tab

There you change your color quality to 32bit and press "OK"

Then you start the client again ^^
This was found by searching the exact title of this thread.

I hope that solves the problem. :)

Don't listen to the once who know nothing ;-) Some graphiccards support only 24bits ( that mainly depends on the drivers )

My laptop GPU does this as well and Illa runs fine! You only have to change the color quality in the client options in the "special" tab to 24bit

No idea if its works on a 64bit Linux. But if you have OpenGL and your monitor and your driver is able to show a resolution of 1024x768px or bigger it should work.
