 Hello,

I am trying to setup VMD with the Oculus Rift. So far I complied VMD from source with the following packages:
./configure LINUXAMD64 OPENGL OPENGLPBUFFER FLTK TK ACTC IMD XINERAMA XINPUT LIBOPTIX LIBTACHYON NETCDF COLVARS TCL PYTHON PTHREADS NUMPY  FREEVR SILENT

Btw. my operation system is Ubuntu 16.04. Then I start vmd using the -dispdev freevr Option but I am not sure how to link the Oculus Rift to FreeVR. As far as the Ouculus Rift setup is concerned I installed the SDK and the nvidia drivers for the GTX980 I am using, so Ubuntu recognized the Oculus as additional display. Maybe one of you can help me how to setup freevr inside VMD.

Regards

Jan
