Re: [PyMOL] SISGL video memory error

This is almost certainly a problem with the SIS OpenGL drivers, which aren't up to the high standards currently being set by nVidia. Again, the only useful advice one can offer is to update video drivers, if possible. Otherwise, it may be time to look for new or used laptop with an nVidia (best

Joris, We used to experience this problem occasionally on Linux, but not anymore. Your best bet is to update to the latest drivers. If that does not work, then this may be an unsolvable hardware issue on older cards. Cheers, Warren -- DeLano Scientific LLC Subscriber Support Services mailto:de

Joris, this is a well known problem with the NVIDIA cards. It gets better with the newer highend cards but does not go away completely. You may want to invest in such a card and play around with different drivers. Carsten > -Original Message- > From: pymol-users-boun...@lists.sourcefor

[PyMOL] hardware stereo problem

2008-03-12 Thread Joris Beld
Dear Pymol users, We have a problem with one of our hardware stereo equipped PCs. For some reason, hardware stereo works fine for about 30sec but than switches to an inverted 3D image. And it keeps switching back and forth between the 'normal' 3D image and the inverted one, every 30sec. This i
