You don't say what you did for Coot, but it should be possible to setup 3D stereo in a way that works for both Chimera and Coot. For the best 3D stereo, Chimera depends on the graphics driver being configured to support quad-buffered OpenGL stereo. For NVIDIA graphics cards on Linux, carefully read the installation nodes. On Ubuntu, you would run: xdg-open /usr/share/doc/nvidia*/html/index.html to see the installation nodes. In might be in a different location on RHEL. And if might be a README file instead of HTML files. Read the installation notes carefully and do what it says :-). In particular, look at Appendix B, X Config Options, and the Stereo option. You might need to create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file using nvidia-xconfig so you can edit it and add a line for the Stereo option. I don't see any conflict between what I just said and Coot's instructions at http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/ccp4wiki/index.php/Stereo, so I hope seeing it a second time in a different way helps. Good luck, Greg On 06/11/2016 01:32 AM, abhisek Mondal wrote:
Hi,
I'm using Chimera - 1.10 on a RHEL-7.x operating system (64-bit) with 128 GB of DDR3 RAM, 2.3 GHz Intel Xeon processor, Nvidia Quadro K5200, ASUS VG278 monitor (3D compatible). I have successfully configured Coot to run in stereoscopic view in the same machine but Chimera is giving me a hard time regarding the same.
Any suggestions regarding this issue will be highly appreciated.
Thank you.
