RE: [PyMOL] SGI Crystal Eyes Problem

[Warren L. D. <wa...@de...>]

Chris,

	PyMOL only support one kind stereo of stereo: OpenGL
quad-buffered-stereo.  It's unclear to me from your message that your
Octane can support QBS.  Sybyl, I believe, can run using top/bottom
stereo, so I am not sure that is a reliable indicator...

PyMOL usually autodetects QBS on X11-based hardware, if it is available.
If "stereo quadbuffer" doesn't work then you may be out of luck on that
system.

(FYI: On the Indigo2's, if you had a lower-end graphics option, it was
necessary to change the video mode to a lower resolution in order to get
QBS...perhaps the same is true of your system?)

Cheers,
Warren
