Dear all

Thanks for your input. With your help, I just installed the stereo on
linux with two monitors using the clone mode. The coot and pymol
stereo work beautifully.

But I met some problem, every time I walked away from my computer to
do some real work, the screensaver would be activated and I couldn't
log back on. So I lost some part of my work. The virtual console
Ctrl+Alt+F1~F6 worked.

I tried to use kernel-devel to build the nvidia driver both the
certified 190 version and the beta version 195.22 and 195.30. But none
of these versions could correct the error. When I allowed the
certified 190 driver to write the xorg.conf file, it worked. I googled
it, but didn't find any answer.

Has anyone encountered the similar problem? Thanks for your help in advance.

Best,

Joe
