overview of OpenGL stereo visual support for ATI Fire GL4 When a monitor is configured in a stereo capable mode, ATI Fire GL4 will have the following additional stereo visuals available. For more information on OpenGL stereo, read the section "running hp's implementation of the OpenGL stereo application" on page 3-2.

It will be supported in a future release. visual support for other graphics devices The OpenGL product can also be used with the Virtual Memory Driver (VMD) in Virtual GLX mode (VGL). VMD allows you to use many X11 drawables (local or remote) as "virtual devices" for three-dimensional graphics with OpenGL. This includes rendering to X terminals and other non-GLX extended X Servers.

Also, note that when alpha is present, Buffer Size will be 16 for the 12-bit visuals and 32 for the 24-bit visuals. 1-4 OpenGL implementation guide
