CUDA 3.2 on Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal

hello,

as it cost me some time to get it run, here a brief description:

First install following packages from from ubuntu repository.
nvidia-current
freeglut3-dev
gcc-4.5
g+±4.4

run:
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.5 150
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.4 100
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g+±4.5 150
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g+±4.4 100

next:
sudo update-alternatives --config gcc
choose gcc-4.4
sudo update-alternatives --config g++
choose g+±4.4

Then install the cuda toolkit 3.2 and GPU Computing SDK code samples from CUDA Toolkit 3.2 Downloads | NVIDIA Developer
CUDA Toolkit for Ubuntu Linux 10.04
GPU Computing SDK code samples

now create following sym links:
ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia-current/libcuda.so /usr/lib/libcuda.so
ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia-current/libGL.so /usr/lib/libGL.so

afterwards make in NVIDIA_GPU_Computing_SDK/C should run without any errors.

hope that may help.

Hello, I installed CUDA in ubuntu 11.04 according to your guide … When I try to make the SDK I get the following error

I tried compiling the deviceQuery and executing it:

I’m getting the following output for the deviceQuery

cudaGetDeviceCount FAILED CUDA Driver and Runtime version may be mismatched.

You have given “choose gcc-4.4” and the same for g++4.4, but there is no command called “choose” in linux… can you help with this …

Thanks for the idea of installing gcc4.4, and setting it as default w/ update-alternatives! Everything compiled just fine for me. :) I was a bit lost because I was looking for gcc4.3, which has been completely removed from the package list of natty, didn’t think of trying 4.4.
