I hope for everybody this is the last time with this. I know it has been asked (even partially by me), and I know people talk about it often - but I am really trying to solve this problem once and for all, and am having a very hard time.

Past and present set-up for this:

Started out with SGI's running active stereo with classic emitters/crystaleyes glasses (or the equivalent)

Moved to linux boxes with quadroFX-1400 video cards. Still have CRT's/emitters

I would like to replace the CRT's with some sort of LCD thing. I have tried several times via at least 5 different web buyers to buy a Zalman monitor. I can't get one (I just received a rebate for a purchase I thought I made last week - out of stock). I would love to go Zalman with all passive stereo - seems like the best way to me, but it just isn't happening.

Has anybody used these 3D tv monitors with active stereo with a FX1400 video card? If not, can you just let me know what video card/monitor combo are needed on a linux station to run 3D (using a classic emitter/crystaleyes). I would like to stay with my video card - but it's possible that I have to upgrade that as well. I just need to get away from CRT's, as they are fading and purchasing them is getting tougher and tougher (and really, I don't want them anymore).

Thanks much

Dave
