[Fluxus] STEREODEFAULT ?

[Alex Norman]

Crystal eyes stereo requires you to have your video card set up to support it [I
forget the exact setting as it has been a while].  Basically there has to be a
right and a left buffer to write into, I really doubt your laptop would support
it.  Unfortunately, I never found a way to try to launch a stereo window with
glut, and recover in the case that the hardware doesn't support it.

When (set-stereo-mode ..) returns false it means that you cannot get into this
stereo mode, in this case you don't have a 'stereo window' 

Maybe just try the red-green or red-blue or whatever it is stereo mode?
