I was wondering if anyone has experience with the stereoscopic view modes of 
FG. Coming with my new laptop were very fancy NVidia  IR synchronized LCD 
shutter glasses for 3D vision, and I've used them to have a look at some 3D 
movie clips, which was sort of impressive. Unfortunately, they don't seem to do 
anything for any of the 3D view modes of FG - all I see are for instance two 
images next to each other.

Now, 3D movies appear the same before the glasses activate (which requires to 
press the 3d button under Windows (no idea if this would ever work under Linux) 
at which point the two movie image streams get time-shifted superimposed and 
the IR sync starts activating the glasses. However, pressing the 3D button when 
FG is running in any of the available view options does precisely nothing, the 
system does't seem to recognize that there's a 3d capable data stream and 
doesn't even attempt to fire up the glasses.

I have no idea if this should in principle work and just requires to set some 
option somewhere, or if the 3D capabilities of FG are simply not designed for 
the hardware - does anyone have that mode running with similar hardware?
