[chimera-dev] stereo: Linux, nvidia Quadro FX 5600

[Randy Heiland]

Hello again gang,

I'm guessing someone there can help me get past this - I know Greg has  
offered advice elsewhere.

My subject line says it all - I want to get stereo working on this  
machine.  Trying something more basic than chimera:

$ glxgears -stereo
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered, Stereo visual

$ glxinfo -v|grep stereo
     bufferSize=32 level=0 renderType=rgba doubleBuffer=1 stereo=0
     bufferSize=32 level=0 renderType=rgba doubleBuffer=1 stereo=0
...

It's not obvious to me where/how one enables stereo via  System->Prefs- 
 >More Prefs->nvidia x server settings

The specs:
Linux-x86_64
nvidia driver version:  180.29

GPU 0 (Quadro FX 5600)
mem 1536 MB
PCI Express 16x
X screens: Screen 0
Display: Apple Cinema HDDisplay (DFP-1)

GPU 1 (Quadro NVS 290)
256 MB
PCI Express 16x
X screens: none
Display: none

with an Apple 30" Cinema HDDisplay currently attached (and a ViewSonic  
Fuhzion, 120Hz as something else to experiment with).  Currently have  
CrystalEyes.

I'd welcome any advice you might have.
thanks, Randy
