Note, Java (the language) explicityly doesn't support depths other than 8 and 24. 16bpp depths are certainly not supported, so although you may be able to workaround some of the bugs, the more you fix the more you'll find. The same sorts of problems plague WinXX users as well. My advice to you is to run in a different screen mode.
