Hello folks,
   I have posted this question before. I'm trying to do stereo rendering
using AR and when I test a simple stereo application, I get the following
error
GLUT: Fatal error: pixel format with necessary capabilities not found.

I assume this error means that my graphics card does not support stereo.


I have downloaded the stereo3D drivers from Nvidia and updated drivers for
Windows XP on which I'm running this app.

Any help would be very appreciated.


Thanks,
Arvind

Hi,

I guess ARToolkit needs the OpenGL quadbuffer stereo API, which only exists
in quadro boards (so as for nvidia)
You can trick the driver to believe your Geforce is a quadro with
rivatunner, but you would need to plug your glasses somewhere, and only the
Quadro hace a mini DIN 3 stereo jack.
There are some hardware which can handle this directly from the subD15 (VGA)
plug ... Long story

Hope this helps

D.
