[PyMOL] 3D HDMI Videos
Hi, is there a known way to create 3D movies for DLP projectors using one of the known 3D formats for HDMI: Frame-Packing (1920 x 2205 / 2 HD pics + 35 pixel black) Top over Bottom (2x540x1920 or 2x720x1280) Side by Side (2x 960 x 1080 ) Only Frame packing will give full resolution on current projectors as far as I know. -- Joachim Reichelt Helmholtz-Zentrum für Infektionsforschung GmbH | Inhoffenstraße 7 | 38124 Braunschweig | www.helmholtz-hzi.de Vorsitzende des Aufsichtsrates: MinDir’in Bärbel Brumme-Bothe, Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung Stellvertreter: Rüdiger Eichel, Abteilungsleiter Niedersächsisches Ministerium für Wissenschaft und Kultur Geschäftsführung: Prof. Dr. Dirk Heinz; Ulf Richter, MBA Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung (GmbH) Sitz der Gesellschaft: Braunschweig Handelsregister: Amtsgericht Braunschweig, HRB 477 -- Ridiculously easy VDI.

Re: [PyMOL] [ccp4bb] MacBookPro problems
Hi all, the problem for Zalman monitor to newer MACs etc. is : From Zalman ( j...@zalman.co.kr ) I got this Mail: I can provide the fix – a custom DVI cable specifically for the ZM-M220W. It resolves the issue of the swapped pins 15 16 of the ZM-M220W, which is not an issue with older graphic cards/GPUs(I infact use the DVI connection with my office PC that has an Nvidia GeForce 7600 card), but is an issue with newer / notebook GPUs. Basically, newer GPUs seem to have acquired a function that actively sends and receives a signal to and from the monitor to check if a connection is made, and if it does not get a return signal that it is looking for, the GPU’s output shuts down. With the ZM-M220W’s swapped pins 15 16, the newer GPUs don’t get the return signal and thinks that no monitor is connected and shuts the output off. On older GPUs, this function is not common and so the GPU outputs constantly without regarding for the pins 15 16. ...

Re: [PyMOL] Viewsonic VX2268wm confirmed to work in stereo under Linux
I Am 25.02.2010 14:01, schrieb greipel.joac...@mh-hannover.de: Hi, For supporting a wide variety of software I think it would be the best choice to have an openGL quad buffered stereo device running. The fact that Harry did have success with a 120 Hz TFT-Monitor, the Quadro FX3800 (3-Pin Mini-Din) with 195.x drivers and 3D-Vision Glasses under Linux is due to the fact that he uses a Linux distribution which is related to RHEL. I just tried exactly the same thing with OpenSuSE 11.2 and couldn't get it to work at all. The reason, at least how I got it after a long, long discussion with custhelp.nvidia appears to be that some distributions mount USB devices under /proc/bus/usb/devices (works...) and some under /dev/bus/usb (doesn't work). In OpenSuSE, which belongs to the latter class, the driver appears to look under the non existing /proc/bus/usb/devices, doesn't find the entry for the 3D-Vision emitter and refuses to switch on stereo. The nvidia guys tested it with RHEL 5, which belongs to the former class of distributions. Unfortunately the USB Emitter must be recognized for reasons I do not know by the driver although the sync signal runs via the 3-Pin Mini-Din. This is easy to fix: put a line in /etc/init.d/boot.local: mount /proc/bus/usb I have 4 systems up runnig openSuse 11.2 Another question of concern is wether the chipset on the FX1800 is supported by the 195.x driver at all.

The main software we use for visualization is PyMOL, in Linux (preferably OpenSuse), so it is mandatory that it works well with Pymol. We might use stereo with other programs like Maestro (Schrödinger) or MOE (CCG), so if compatible with this other software, the better. Graphics Card is a nVidiaGEFORCE QUADRO FX 1800. PyMOL official recommendations was the Zalman ZMM220W, but this is not longer distributed, at least in Europe. So, before going for any of the solutions like Samgsung or Viewsonic, and getting deep into the nightmare of finding out the proper X configuration, I would like to receive as much input as possible from recent experiences of PyMOL community.

I've seen this behaviour long time ago with very old Nvidia graphics card drivers under Linux. Sometimes, I still see this behaviour with new drivers but with old computer hardware. Here are a few hints that might be worth trying: - Install the most recent Nvidia driver. If it happened after updating, it might be worth to go back 1-2 versions. - If you use the emitter from NuVision, you can simply invert left and right with a small switch. - Sometimes, it helps to minimize the application and maximize it again.

Integer indicates the type of stereo equipment being used: Value Equipment -- --- 1 DDC glasses. The sync signal is sent to the glasses via the DDC signal to the monitor. These usually involve a passthrough cable between the monitor and the graphics card. This mode is not available on G8xGL and higher GPUs. 2 "Blueline" glasses. These usually involve a passthrough cable between the monitor and graphics card. The glasses know which eye to display based on the length of a blue line visible at the bottom of the screen. When in this mode, the root window dimensions are one pixel shorter in the Y dimension than requested. This mode does not work with virtual root window sizes larger than the visible root window size (desktop panning). This mode is not available on G8xGL and higher GPUs. 3 Onboard stereo support. This is usually only found on professional cards. The glasses connect via a DIN connector on the back of the graphics card. 4 TwinView clone mode stereo (also known as "passive" stereo). On graphics cards that support TwinView, the left eye is displayed on the first display, and the right eye is displayed on the second display. This is normally used in conjunction with special projectors to produce 2 polarized images which are then viewed with polarized glasses. To use this stereo mode, you must also configure TwinView in clone mode with the same resolution, panning offset, and panning domains on each display. 5 Vertical interlaced stereo mode, for use with SeeReal Stereo Digital Flat Panels. 6 Color interleaved stereo mode, for use with Sharp3D Stereo Digital Flat Panels. 7 Horizontal interlaced stereo mode, for use with Arisawa, Hyundai, Zalman, Pavione, and Miracube Digital Flat Panels.
