Google Groups: opengl stereo fullscreen. Re: OpenGL, seen with 3D glasses:
I found several examples about "stereo" on the internet, but I suppose the graphics card doesn't support "stereo mode", because they all give the same errors: "GLUT: Fatal Error in ...: pixel format with necessary capabilities not found.", "GL_STEREO flag set to FALSE, indicating that stereo should not be supported" and "The application window's pixel format failed to switch to stereo mode". You can find one of the examples [here].
Your graphics card does not support stereomode. ... So you should view normal OGL fullscreen programs in 3D, but not stereomode programs.
