Hi,
  I assume from the driver version numbers that you're using Linux?
Have you checked the contents of the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see
if there are any errors or warnings about your stereo configuration
when you're using 195.36.15? I don't know anything about the 60GX NUVISION
glasses emitter you mention, do you know if they are guaranteed to work
correctly with the NVIDIA drivers? The /var/log/Xorg.0.log file should
indicate whether the driver thinks it is talking to the emitter through
the DIN connector or via USB. There have been driver versions that
broke the behavior of DIN emitters before, which I was able to track down
by reading the X server output in the log files. I would start with the
Xorg.0.log file and see what you find and whether the stereo related
messages agree with your expectations or not.

Cheers,
  John Stone
