Hello, I have problem with Nvidia Quadro FX 880M and Stereoscopic view. When I switch the stereoscopic view on in Chimera it gives me following error: stereo viewing (Unable to find hardware stereo support (couldn't choose pixel format Couldn't configure togl widget)). I have installed the Quadro drivers version 259.57 in Windows 7 64bit. And separate 3D driver for Quadro.

Hi Veli-Pekka, This is either a driver configuration problem or driver limitation or driver bug. Your driver is from Oct 2010 and there are newer ones. The following 266.58 driver was released Jan 18, 2011 and the notes say it adds support for various "3d vision notebooks". Maybe the new driver is needed. http://www.nvidia.com/object/notebook-win7-winvista-64bit-266.58-whql-driver... If it is a driver configuration problem, I don't know about that. Our expert on stereo and Windows is on vacation this week but can advise you next week. Tom

I installed back the newest driver and problem still persist. So it's problem either with driver or the card. 880M isn't very high end on the Quadro Cards.
If it is a driver configuration problem, I don't know about that. Our expert on stereo and Windows is on vacation this week but can advise you next week.
Seems that I will be waiting for that. Thank you for your reply. And hope to hear from you next week. -vpk

IIRC there's an option in the windows nvidia configuration utility that enables and disables nvidia 3d vision. I assume that's the setup you're trying to use, so check that to see if it's enabled or disabled. 2011/2/23 Veli-Pekka Kestilä <veli-pekka.kestila@helsinki.fi>:

I have done all of these and as I said in my original e-mail I got the full screen tests nvidia provides working. Problem is that when I try to start Chimera or PyMol it fails complaining that 3d vision mode isn't available. So question still basically is if it's possible to get it working with Quadro 880M On 2/23/11 4:40 PM, Sabuj Pattanayek wrote:

If both Chimera and PyMol are complaining, then you've haven't configured OpenGL stereo correctly. The NVidia Quadro driver configuration has two places to setup stereo. There are the "Stereoscopic 3D" settings that are not helpful for chimera (except for making NVIDIA's stereo image viewer work). So in addition to that, you want to setup stereo in the "3D Settings / Manage 3D Settings" dialog. In there, turn on "Stereo - Enable" and select the appropriate kind of stereo in "Stereo - Display mode". Good luck, Greg On 02/28/2011 09:11 PM, Veli-Pekka Kestilä wrote:
