Hi,

I've seen this in ucsf chimera with quadro 1400 and 3400/3450 cards +
nuvision emitter + CRT monitor. We fixed the issue by downgrading the
nvidia driver to 100.14.23 (really old but it still works with
RHEL5/CENTOS5 kernels). I couldn't duplicate this issue in pymol or
vmd, but it looks like it happens in coot as well according to you
guys.. So I thought it was a problem with the application (I know
you're going to say stereo calls are made the same way), but
downgrading the driver fixed it for us, but again I couldn't duplicate
it in some visualization programs.

Thanks,
Sabuj
