[chimerax-users] VR mode not working

[Sebastian Poelsterl]

Hi,

I'm trying to view a PDB structure (2fha) in vr mode, but get the following error after executing 'vr on':

An error occurred in drawing the scene. Redrawing graphics is now stopped to avoid a continuous stream of error messages. To restart graphics use the command "graphics restart" after changing the settings that caused the error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Program Files\ChimeraX-0.5\bin\lib\site-packages\chimerax\core\updateloop.py", line 61, in draw_new_frame
view.draw(check_for_changes = False)
File "C:\Program Files\ChimeraX-0.5\bin\lib\site-packages\chimerax\core\graphics\view.py", line 178, in draw
r.draw_background()
File "C:\Program Files\ChimeraX-0.5\bin\lib\site-packages\chimerax\core\graphics\opengl.py", line 677, in draw_background
GL.glClear(flags)
File "zr\accelerate\src\errorchecker.pyx", line 53, in OpenGL_accelerate.errorchecker._ErrorChecker.glCheckError (src\errorchecker.c:1270)
OpenGL.error.GLError: GLError(
err = 1282,
description = b'invalid operation',
baseOperation = glClear,
cArguments = (16640,)
)

I'm using ChimeraX 0.5 with an Oculus Rift (1.24.0.545657), NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 (driver version 391.01) and SteamVR Version 2018-02-10 (1518226924) under Windows 10 (10.0.0.14393).

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Sebastian
