Hi John,

   I did as you suggested, but still I don't see the light coming out of
the emitter, on starting the VMD I do see STEREO mentioned in the OpenGL
featuers. I have also set VMDPREFERSTEREO=1.
following is output of
# fbconfig -dev gfb0 -propt
 
--- OpenWindows Configuration for /dev/fbs/gfb0 ---
 
OWconfig File: machine
 
Video:
        Resolution: SUNW_STEREO_1280x1024x112
        Port (a): 13W3
        Port (b): auto
 
Multisample:
        Samples Per Pixel: max
        Allocation Model: dynamic
        Application Mode: enable
 
Screen:
        Doublewide: disable
        Doublehigh: disable
        Active Stream: auto
        Offset/Overlap: [0, 0]
        Clearpixel Value: 255
        Gamma Correction Value: 2.22
 
Framelock:
        Framelock/Stereo Port: Output from Stream A
        Stream A Sync: Free Run (no frame sync)
        Stream B Sync: Free Run (no frame sync)

Once again thanks for your help.
