Kasper, not sure if this will help you, but I think the GLEW stuff was
added recently in V1.4.x and it seems to be still somewhat experimental.
May be to get you started you could switch to v1.3r1 from the repository

Try something like this for a side-by-side stereo image:

I would be interested to see the OpenGL version implemented, despite the

sufficient to produce a good picture.
As for the implementation in a raytracer context I second Tsjerk's and
Harry's thoughts on the subject.
Christian,
as far as I know, PyMol is only able to draw bonds between atoms within the
same object. The easiest way would be to combine the pdb files, probably a good
idea to give the symm-mate a different chain or segid and then issue the bond
command to draw the bond.

the MSEs are probably HETATM records instead of ATOM records. You can either

Michael, play around with the hash_max value, which seem to partially control
how much memory is used during rendering. You can also reduce the quality of
