I have looked through the archives and could not find an answer. Who could help me with the set up of 3-d stereo on my Quadro FX3500 ?
In the end I will have a TFT monitor (DELL widescreen) as primary monitor and a Samsung 1200NF as second monitor. What would be the ideal set-up to allow stereo with LCD shutter glasses on the CRT (while the TFT evidently needs to stay in mono). I understand that Twinview is not suitable since this will treat both monitors as one and would put the TFT in stereo, too, which does not really work. Would anybody be able to share the relevant lines in xorg.conf with me ?

you have to do it with xinerama. The following is a config file for a 1920x1200 LCD and a 1280x1024 CRT in stereo. Stereo must be enabled on both screen, but is usable on the CRT only.
Hope this helps,

that did the trick. Not immediately, and I had to play a bit with a few details, but the major and most important Flags and keywords were all there. Changes just referred to the modelines and resolution of my monitor, which I copied from other files I had. And actually, unlike in earlier times, stereo does not mess up my whole window, but rather does stereo only in the specific software window, such that the TFT screen remains perfectly legible. I can look at my models in 3-d on the CRT (even in the TFT, actually) and take off my LCD glasses and still read the relevant tables and texts on the TFT just fine.

I want to use a setup similar to the one ipk used, i.e.
CRT with stereo (LCD-shutterglasses) and a tft monitor,
and tried to do so for many unsuccessful hours.
So i was really happy when ifound your post here.
I also adapted your xorg.conf to frequencies and resolutions of my monitors,
but i doesn't completely work: the CRT does as expected, and X also
seems to think the TFT is there, because the mouse disapperars when it leaves
the screen of the CRT. But the TFT remains black (it does not seem
to get a signal)
Om the other hand i have a xorg.conf (of unknown origin, which i don't entirely
understand) for a TwinView configuration where both the CRT and the TFT work
(the CRT without Stereo, though) so it can't be a question of properly
connecting the cables.
Any idea what may cause this?
Is it possible that a TFT remains black, when the frequency is bad?

I want to use a setup similar to the one ipk used, i.e.
CRT with stereo (LCD-shutterglasses) and a tft monitor,
and tried to do so for many unsuccessful hours.
So i was really happy when ifound your post here.
I also adapted your xorg.conf to frequencies and resolutions of my monitors,
but i doesn't completely work: the CRT does as expected, and X also
seems to think the TFT is there, because the mouse disapperars when it leaves
the screen of the CRT. But the TFT remains black (it does not seem
to get a signal)
Om the other hand i have a xorg.conf (of unknown origin, which i don't entirely
understand) for a TwinView configuration where both the CRT and the TFT work
(the CRT without Stereo, though) so it can't be a question of properly
connecting the cables.
Any idea what may cause this?
Is it possible that a TFT remains black, when the frequency is bad?
Thank You
Jody
