Just thought I'd let people know that I was able to get
a stereo configuration working under linux.
The details...
My setup...
OS: RedHat 7.1
Xserver: XiG's Summit Platinum, multi-head version 2.1-8
Video Card: Matrox G450(I think 32 Mb RAM)
CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1300MHz
RAM: 256Mb
Monitor: ViewSonic PS790
Stereo Equipment: Stereographics Stereoeyes wired.
Pymol: 0.82
Notes:
XiG offers a demo version of the server which is
active for 20 minutes each invocation. This gives
you ability to experiment before deciding to buy.
After Summit is installed, and you've started the
new Xserver, you need to use "Xsetup" to chose
"Stereo Mode" under the OpenGL window. I chose
WhiteLine. Restart your X server. The glasses should
start to shutter at this point and the program "glxinfo"
should indicate if you have stereo capability.
If you get core dumps when you launch OpenGL programs,
look at:
Is your glibc at or above version 2?
Try removing
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/AcceleratedX/modules/olg_sse2.mod
select "Quad-Buffered Stereo" from the stereo selections.
