[Chromium-environment] Using VrJuggler with Chromium

[Dan H. <dh...@il...>]

I would like to use Vrjuggler DR3 with Chromium 1.1 on Linux Redhat 8.

I beleive the recommended way is to use a separate viewports for each wall 
in VrJuggler. For the simulator the file 
vrjuggler/data/configFiles/sim.c6viewports.mixin.config 
is recommmended.

Chromium does not seem to work with the viewports appearing on screen as
an unfolded cube. In the case of a single tile Chromium appears to require it
to start at [0,0]. Do I have to arrange the VrJuggler viewports into a 
rectangle such as 1 row 6 coloumns ?

I would like to get a 4 wall passive stereo environment working.
This will use separate left and right stereo channel computers and
projectors for each wall.  8 computers altogether and 8 projectors.

Since the chromium tilesort spu maps by screen area how do I configure 
VrJuggler and Chromium to send each walls left and right projection data
to separate computers ?
Do I have to use a different screen area by altering my glViewport for
left and right channels ?

Are there any special synchronization issues for this 8 computer 
4 wall passive stereo environment ?

Cluster juggler is another approach but I do not want to replicate my large
amount of input data.
