My approach is rather buggy. It is fun, but not terribly practical.

Hi Carl, regarding to your comments below. What do I have to do to stretch the desktop all the way around 360 degrees and so.

It's almost finished.

I just need to fix up a few things so it doesn't flicker so much.

It won't be limited to 1024x768. The desktop will stretch all the way around 360 degrees horizontally, and 180 degrees vertically.

Which works out to a resolution of 9000x4500 if you use the real resolution and FOV of the VR920. The best part is... it uses the exact same amount of memory as normal 640x480.

Unfortunately you won't be able to make individual windows larger than the screen size yet. But you can move windows around anywhere within the sphere.

Actually my problem was the wallpaper. When I remove it, everything works perfect.

Carl,

Do I need any kind of hardware or software support to run this desktop other than the stuff that comes with the VR920? Im running WinXp 32 on a NVidia 8800 GTX... no stereo drivers. Sounds really sweet, though... can't wait to try it out!
