It has been awhile since I have purchased hardware for crystallographic
research. I am asking for recommendations for setting up hardware
stereo with Coot under Linux.
1. What flat screen monitors would you suggest to replace existing
CRT monitors now being used with nVidia cards using quad buffered
stereo, emitters and 3D glasses?
2. Starting from scratch what monitor, graphics card, emitter and
3D glasses would you suggest.
3. Have you had experience setting up multi-seat configurations, that
is where a single computer supports multiple independent users at
the same time. Each user will have a monitor, keyboard, emitter,
3D glasses and mouse. I believe I saw this done at SSRL or
possibly ALS many years ago using an SGI machines to support two
fitting stations. I know it has been done using Linux using multi
core CPUs. Just asking.
Best regards,
