Dear all,

I am looking again at 3D monitors. Last year I bought for my old lab the
VG278HR and the PNY K600, as advised by the CCP4BB. (The 3D test images
from Nvidia were running fine under Windows, but I did not get around to
finish the set up with pymol and coot under linux.)

Now at a new place, I looked at available monitors again (that have the
built-in emitter since I want to use the K600 graphics card) and noticed
that the VG278HR is out of stock. The VG278H, which seems to be a very
similar model, is also out of stock.

This page

http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-displays.html

also lists the Acer HN274H as a 27'' monitor with built-in emitter, but
that seems to be out of stock as well (I would prefer not to buy a
refurbished or used one). The monitors mentioned above are also listed
here:

http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/ccp4wiki/index.php/Stereo

(The smaller BenQ XL2420TX listed there is also out of stock).

Has anybody ordered a 3D monitor with built-in emitter recently or could
provide me with a current list of 27'' monitors with built-in emitters? I
checked with Nvidia via their chat support, but they did not have an
updated list, just provided links to the manufacturers' homepages.

If monitors with built-in emitters are not available anymore, I need to buy
a different graphics card in order for the setup to work with linux, right?

Thank you and best wishes, Tobias.
