I’m starting CUDA programming with “Cuda_by_example” book.
I can compile an run all the examples from the source code of the book but when I try to launch them, I get a windows with a black background.
The first example I tested was “julia_gpy.cu” and it didn’w work (black screen or with garbage), then I tried to execute the exe file generated onto another computer with a newer card and updated drivers and it rendered correctly the julia set in red color, so I thought I would be a driver issue in my development computer. Thus, I upgraded video driver to latest and finally get julia example working. But… I can’t get working all the other examples that use glut, like ripple.cu.
Even they don’t work in any cuda computer that I tried.
I’m using latest drivers (314) and the glut binaries that came with the book, using cuda 5 sdk. (even though I tried to compile them with 4.2 sdk and nothing happened)
Windows 7 + gtx 460 in the development computer.
I’m thinking about an incompatibility of glut and cuda or drivers.
Has anybody this problem?
It is frustrating to get a book for learing CUDA and not be able to get the examples work.
Thanks in advance.
for me also it is frustrating to learn cuda and execution of sample programs.
Me too, have you solved it?
