glTexParameteri flags GL_INVALID_ENUM

I've got a program I'm working on, when it's run in a window everything is fine, but once I run the program in fullscreen and make a texture with TextureIO.newTexture(File) I get the following error.  I'm afraid I don't have code to provide, I've been unable to reproduce the error in a smaller program, but I hoped the following stack trace and my OS(Windows 7) might be enough to suggest a direction for me to go in.  I found one link in google that mentions this error, but the solution there was to download the latest jogl, and I just got my copy off of the website today.

javax.media.opengl.GLException: Thread[AWT-EventQueue-0,6,main] glGetError() returned the following error codes after a call to glTexParameteri(<int> 0xDE1, <int> 0x8191, <int> 0x1): GL_INVALID_ENUM ( 1280 0x500),

Whenever I resort to posting a question on the internet I'm sure I can't get any further on my own, but I just figured out my problem.  In my program I save the resolution I want in a(an?) xml file, then I iterate over all my available display modes and pick a display which matches the resolution I want, with no regard for the bit depth of the display mode.  As a result, when I ran my program in fullscreen I had a bit depth of 8 bits.  Selecting a display mode which gives the resolution I want and the maximum bit depth solves my problem.
