Hi Gretchen,
you have to connect the CRT monitor to the first of the two Nvidia
DVI-ports, that is the one that is further away from the 3-pin mini-
DIN connector. If you run a stereo-capable program that uses X11
(which must be installed, of course), you still have to activate the
X11 stereo by giving the following command in a terminal:
defaults write com.apple.x11 enable_stereo -bool true
Use the automatic monitor recognition in the system settings and
choose an appropriate resolution and refresh rate for the CRT
monitor, like 1280x960 at 120 Hz.
Drag the stereo-application to the CRT window, switch the application
to stereo and then, luckily, it should work.
Good luck,
Dirk.

MacPro Xeon NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 Stereo Nuvision problem
We just bought a Mac Pro Intel Xeon (2x 2.66 GHz) computer with an
NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 graphics card, connected to a flat screen SGI
monitor, and a Viewsonic G225fB CRT monitor.The Nuvision IR emitter
which we connected to the Mac Pro does not work, yet. The emitter
works on a linux system, so we know the emitter is o.k. I also
made sure that the displays are arranged in the Mac System
Preferences so that the CRT display is No. 1 and the flat screen is
No. 2., but that made no difference.
So does anyone have a straightforward solution to this problem?
Is it a Mac issue? A monitor issue? I just want to see that
little red LED light up on top of the monitor, HELP! Thanks!
