If you are interested, I've also had Surface LIC working on my ATI HD 4850 at home. It didn't work on my X1900XT. It would be nice if there was a list of cards that support the feature. ===================================

The Quadro FX 1700 is in the GeForce 8 family and thus should work. 2010/8/26 Aurélien Marsan <[email protected]> Thanks for this review, that helps me understand a little better. Searching more informations about the processor of the graphic card, I found these details : Quadro 3450, that didn't work with surface LIC --> http://www.gpureview.com/nvidia-nv41-chip-71.html Quadro FX 1700, that works --> http://www.gpureview.com/nvidia-g84-chip-138.html Which of there features is important, in order surfaceLIC to work ? DirectX Compliance ? PS Version <http://www.gpureview.com/pixel-shader-version-article-390.html> and/or VS Version ? Le 26 août 2010 14:05, Dave Partyka <[email protected]> a écrit : Quadro FX 3450 cards are in the Geforce 6 Family (it uses a NV42GL processor). I am pretty sure you need a newer card for surfaceLIC to work. 2010/8/26 Aurélien Marsan <[email protected]> Hello, Really, I can not understand what makes the plugin surfaceLIC work or not. And it's a pity, because that's exactly what I need....... ! Could we try to list as many graphic cards as possible, in order to try to understand where the problem comes from ? My system : Linux x86_64 [Quadro FX 3450/4000 SDI] - 256MB Driver 195.36.24 When I use surfaceLIC, Paraview freezes. It seems that the calculation works, but very slowly.... I had tried a newer driver, but this had not solve the problem. A colleagues' system : Linux x86_64 Two graphic cards : Quadro FX 1700 - 512MB VBIOS Version 60.84.75.00.14 It works without any problem. --------------> Does the size of the memory of the graphics card could be the explanation ? Thanks for any help, or advice. Aurélien. _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.paraview.org/mailman/listinfo/paraview ********************************************************************** This email contains information that is private and confidential and is intended only for the addressee.
