Just check out the cards on the back - it should have the small round port that a 60GX plug would fit into. The NuVision site has a list of cards that are compatible with their emitters. I don't remember them all right off, but it's fairly straightforward.

By the way, I buy all my video cards and memory on e-bay. Those quadro FX cards are often packaged in Dell systems that are leased to companies, and when the leases are up, the cards get parted out. I've purchased at least 7 this way, only paying 1/3 or so for each (compared to retail prices). I haven't had an issue with any thus far (until today that is - I'm sure something will happen now). Be sure to check the vendors out, but it is a source that isn't too crazy. I don't remember the prices I paid, but it was small compared to buying them new online somewhere. As I furnished 6 computers at once, I looked for package deals (they were even better).
Good luck with that.

Dave

Dear David,

thank you for your answer. Do you (or anyone on the list) know if any FX-card would work with NuVision 60GX (like FX370, FX570), or only the dear ones (FX1400 and above)?

The nVidia cards used for stereo are the Quadro FX series. The Quadro
NVS series are for running multiple monitors, but not fancy 3D graphics.
You can explore the manufacturer's web site for details.

Good day,

I have been trying to enable stereo mode on a PC (SuSE10.1) with an NVIDIA
NV37GL [Quadro FX 330/Quadro NVS280] graphics card (according to
Xorg.0.log).

(--) PCI:*(5:0:0) nVidia Corporation NV37GL [Quadro FX 330/Quadro NVS280]
rev
162, Mem @ 0xdd000000/24, 0xc0000000/28, 0xde000000/24, BIOS @
0xdfc00000/17
(II) NVIDIA(0): NVIDIA GPU Quadro NVS 280 PCI-E at PCI:5:0:0 (GPU-0)

Accroding to some web page about O, the options are set to
(**) NVIDIA(0): Option "Stereo" "3"
(**) NVIDIA(0): Option "NvAGP" "1"
(**) NVIDIA(0): Option "IgnoreEDID" "false"
(**) NVIDIA(0): Option "UseEdidFreqs" "true"

Yet, the log file says
(WW) NVIDIA(0): Stereo is only available on Quadro cards
(II) NVIDIA(0): Disabling stereo.

I was wondering whether anyone could explain what is so un-Quadro about
this
card?

(Currently, the display is an LCD, but the same messages came up when the
display was a CRT)

Thank you for your help,
Tim
