finally got stereo in coot working on the ppc with Tiger.
it was necessary to download X11 1.1.3 (and XCode 2.5).
hope I did not bore too many people with my uselessness at installing software.

It is important to connect the stereo-capable CRT to the first DVI socket of the graphics card (the one closer to the case edge - you may have to reconnect the monitor(s)), and choose a resolution for the CRT that permits a 120 Hz vertical refresh rate. For 1280x960 pixels, a horizontal refresh rate of ~130 kHz is needed for the CRT monitor, which is usually the limiting parameter.
