[Mono-winforms-list] NullReferenceException under Wine

[Stifu]

It seems these 2 lines are the ones that interest us:

fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented.
fixme:gdiplus:GdipDrawImagePointsRect Color transforms not implemented

Both things refer to missing bits in Wine. So you may be out of luck.
If you're using an old Wine version, you could try updating. Or look around
if the bugs have been fixed.

Second error may have been recently fixed by this:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24153
As for the first one, this bug report:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20174
might imply you should "Use Wine's built in OLE", whatever that means.
