The Crystal Eyes glasses uses polarisation filters, that are
incompatible with most LCD monitors.
Perhaps the new NVIDIA glasses have the same 3 pin connector.
So this is not a driver problem.
For a test: turn the glasses 90 deg relative to the LCD and you can see
"stereo".

Hi
I am wondering if there is a linux nvidia driver update or any other
hack that allows Crystal Eyes 3 stereo products to work with the LCD
120Hz flat panel monitors.
I should have read Warrens warning post (Dated Jan 23 , 2009 [ccp4bb]
Caution - 120 Hz LCDs: Not CRT killers yet) , before purchasing the
Viewsonic VX2265wm 120Hz LCD. But my CRT died last week and since I
was addicted to pymol/coot-in stereo ( with Crystal Eyes 3 ) , I
rushed out and bought this 120 Hz LCD monitor.
Of course things dont work . And I am wondering if there is any update
from nvidia or any other workaround that allows me to get stereo on
this setup.
Monitor : Viewsonic FuHzion VX2265wm 120Hz
Graphics card: Quadro FX 4600
OS: Ubuntu Linux X86_64 - Hardy Heron 8.04
Stereo glasses: Crystal Eyes 3 with 3pin mini din connector
Thanks for your help in advance

Donnie,
This tripped me up for a while too, but I think the stereo DIN is an
output (for projector, & Z-screens, etc.) not an input. Suffice it to
say that the nVidia USB dongle does not work (in my hands, with or
without USB power) as a VESA-based emitter the way we apparently both
hoped it would!
Cheers,
Warren

I tested out the Samsung Syncmaster 2233RZ / NVIDIA 3D Vision bundle
today ($599 for a 120 Hz LCD display with one pair of glasses).
I was very much hoping that this new display would nevertheless also
work with existing nVidia Quadro-based Mac or Linux systems with
existing emitters and glasses running existing OpenGL software.
Sadly,
this does not seem to be the case due at least in part to the fact
that
the phase of the sync signal coming out of the Quadro card does not
match the update phase of the LCD display. In addition, light from
the
display itself seems to corrupt the sync signal for StereoGraphics
glasses.
Hi Warren,
Did you happen to try the new glasses + emitter with a CRT? I am
particularly curious whether this works on Linux, or whether it needs
some sort of USB driver stubs so that Linux knows what to do with
these
devices.
It comes with a stereo-DIN cable so it seems like it could work,
provided the emitter can get power via USB and the glasses can charge
via USB.
If the new glasses can work with a CRT, then at least we could buy
stereo bundles now and use all of the parts of them in some sort of
Frankenstein setup pending support for LCD stereo.
