** Additional Requirements for Stereographic Rendering
{anchor: Stereo_Requirements}

	!!! The client requirements do not apply to anaglyphic stereo.  See
	{ref prefix="Chapter ": Advanced_OpenGL} for more details.

|| || Server || Client ||
| Linux/Unix \
	| 3D graphics card that supports stereo (examples: nVidia Quadro, ATI \
		FirePro.)  The 2D X server should be configured to export stereo visuals. \
	| < \

| Mac/x86 \
	| N/A \
	| 3D graphics card that supports stereo (example: nVidia Quadro.) \
		The 2D X server should be configured to export stereo visuals. \
	|
| Windows \
	| N/A \
	| {list type=ul: \
			{item:3D graphics card that supports stereo (examples: nVidia \
				Quadro, ATI FirePro.)  Stereo support should be enabled in the 3D \
				driver configuration.} \

				visuals (such as [[http://connectivity.opentext.com][OpenText]] \
				Exceed 3D v8 or newer)}} \

** Additional Requirements for Transparent Overlays
{anchor: Overlay_Requirements}

|| || Client ||
