Hi All A quick fix to the problem with the newest nVIDIA linux drivers and broken stereo is to install the nvidia-glx-legacy package if it is available for your distribution. In Ubuntu this contains the 7184 driver which was the last to support TNT, TNT2, TNT Ultra, GeForce, and GeForce2 chipsets. However, it also supports quadro 4 chipsets with working stereo, even though the package description doesnt mention this. sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy, close X, rmmod nvidia or restart, restart X. There might be a problem with the initrd image containing the wrong kernel-driver, so that rmmod nvidia have to be issued after the kernel have mounted root and before X is started.
Another note: the new composite extension breaks stereo support. sudo nvidia-xconfig --no-composite fixes this on Edgy Eft.

Around it I show the surface with a transparency of 0.4. (the aim is to highlight some specific residues by showing their side chains in stick without transparency). I can see the wanted result in OpenGL view. But when I raytrace the picture a kind of "Copperfield" effect happens: the cartoon backbone disappears (NB: it happens for any kind of combination of transparency value for cartoon and surface). Is anybody have an idea of what is happening ? Thanks, Emeric -- +=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ Emeric Wasielewski, Ph. D.

The default is to just show the one closest to the viewer (uni-layer transparency). This gives prettier pictures with a single surface, since you don't see the backside of the protein or any pockets in the surface. However, for your purposes, you want multi-layer transparency. To select this, choose "Setting->Transparency->Multi-layer". I just confirmed that this works. I find the results a bit busy, unless you're looking at just a small part of the protein. You may need to hide background details with the clipping planes. - Matt -- Matthew Franklin , Ph.D. Senior Scientist, ImClone Systems 180 Varick Street, 6th floor New York, NY 10014 phone:(917)606-4116 fax:(212)645-2054 Confidentiality Note: This e-mail, and any attachment to it, contains privileged and confidential information intended only for the use of the individual(s) or entity named on the e-mail.
