- We are thinking of doing the same thing, using DevGuide on the Sun to
- produce user interface code that is compilable in all our platforms (SGI,
- Suns and RS6000's).
-
- We've heard that there is a problem NOT using 4Dwm when you want to switch the
- monitor into stereo mode. Apparently, programs can make some functions calls
- to the window manager that tell it to display windows twice, which is necessary
- when the frame buffer is interleaved for stereo use.
-
- If anyone knows more details (or corrections) about the above, please let
- us know..
-
- Thanks..
