Why using those fancy things when you can use a smooth ssh session and can do endless things with a terminal? Smilie Just kidding!

Try with -depth 32; if that does not work you can decrease it gradually all the way down to 8. Safe values are 32, 16 and 8. 8 being the lowest color depth.

Let me know if this works!!
