Hello Hari,
I had some flickering problems when I first tried the stereo mode on an
Alienware LCD display. There is one option in the Nvidia driver that seems to
keep the display at 60Hz, it is called "Force Full GPU Scaling". Make sure that
the option is turned off, otherwise you won't be able to reach 120Hz. Anyway, I
don't think that a modeline is mandatory.
However, nothing is perfect ... On my display only 2/3 of the screen displays a
"proper" 3D effect, but it seems to be caused by the technology itself. You can
still compensate a little by tweaking some stereo options (go to the edit
all... menu in setting and filter for "stereo"). Adjusting the stereo_angle
and/or the the stereo_shift might help you.
Hope this helps !
