I presume the Quadro 4000 should work, it is listed on the supported products page:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/quadro_pro_graphics_boards_linux.html

We have a Quadro FX 3800 card with the optional stereo bracket (900-50762-0000-000).
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/652465-REG/PNY_Technologies_900_50762_0000_000_Stereo_Bracket_for_Quadro.html

The 3800 puts out less heat:
4000  142 W
3800  108 W

And yes, we have run our setup with a second, non-stereo,  monitor.

My hope is that soon stereo-capable monitors using DisplayPort v1.2 and with the IR emitter built-in to the monitor will make it to retail, but I haven't seen anything like that for sale yet.

Dear all,

sorry for the off topic question (that has been asked many times before, but the hardware keeps changing): I want to buy a linux workstation with Nvidia 3D vision and an Alienware OptX AW2310 23-inch 3D TFT monitor. This set-up suggested by the CCP4 wiki for TFT stereo. Has anyone a similar set-up running under linux and can suggest a matching graphics card? It would be perfect if it could handle twinview with a second, non 3D/stereo TFT monitor. Does the Nvidia Quadro 4000 do this, and is the Nvidia driver running stable under linux?

Thanks
Michael
