Elena,
  We have only tested VMD with the SGI version of CAVElib as we don't have
access to any other versions. We don't have a flock of birds here in our
lab, I've only used the FOB in the NCSA CAVE when testing there, and in that
installation the FOB is completely transparent as it is driven by CAVElib.
