Hello Stefan. Since your reply, I have successfully executed the demo
program, epPly on a Linux
system.. However, I do have a few questions, if I may:
1) I am running from home, having logged into a 2-GPU machine via "ssh
-X". All 1-pipe configurations
run fine. However, when I try a 2-pipe configuration, I get that I do
not have a display :0.1 available.
That kind of makes sense since I am remote. Are there other arguments I
can use with ssh to make
more than one display available? My home machine is a Macbook-Pro with
built-in X11 server.
2) When running eqPly, I cannot seem to load the .ply files
(rockingArm.ply). I execute:
eqPly.64 -m rockingArm.ply
and while the program (almost) obviously tries to read it, nothing
displays. Note that we compiled Equalizer
in 64 bit mode. Might that be the reason since ints, floats and
addresses are now 8-bytes and perhaps the file
format can no longer be read?
3) Do you know of anybody that has combined CUDA or RapidMind with
Equalizer? That would be a worthwhile
effort in my opinion.
4) Do you have an example where you specifically control what you write
to different Pipes? In all examples I have
seen, the low level Equalizer software takes care of making these
decisions, once a compound type is chosen.
Thanks for a great piece of software!

on which card. Is this possible with Equalizer?
Yes, this is possible. Simply set the 'device' to the card number in
the pipe section of your configuration file. All 2-pipe*.eqc
configuration files do this [1].
On Windows you'll need a Quadro card and a recent nVidia driver with
the WGL_nv_gpu_affinity extension. On Linux and Mac it works on all
drivers. If everything is working, you shouldn't see any OpenGL
rendering when moving the window to another card on Windows or Linux.
HTH,
Stefan.
