Has anyone tried the NVidia stereo drivers?  Supposedly they work with any
app, not just ones specifically written for stereo.  I downloaded this from
NVidia's site, and was able to make the 'dual' images appear, and the
flickering was happening (so I guess I was running in stereo) with my trusty
'ol TNT.  See here:

I don't have the 3D glasses to truly make this work, but is seemed REALLY
easy...just install the drivers (you get an extra tab in your display
properties), then run your app, bam, stereo.
