Yup, we were all there once. That's what this list is for.....

All the above programs require use of palette switching and hence only work
in 8 bits-per-pixel mode. If you run them from an X-Term session you will
get the error messages as to why they don't start (always useful for
non-starting X apps). If you change your colour depth to 8bpp they will
work.
