CUDA on Fedora 10: Unable to compile

darkmav · May 16, 2009, 12:22pm

Hi everyone

I’m trying to set up CUDA to work on Fedora Core 10. My hardware config is:

Intel Core i7 920 CPU

3 GB DDR 3 SDRAM (1333 MHz)

Palit GTX 295 Graphics Card (single)

I have downloaded and installed the nVidia driver, which is working fine. The files I have are listed below:

[codebox][vivek@farpoint cuda]$ ls -l

[vivek@farpoint cuda]$ [/codebox]

I’ve installed the driver, the sdk and then the toolkit with superuser permissions. I have also set the bath in bash_profile. Now, when I log in as root and try to run make, I get the following error messages:

[codebox][root@farpoint NVIDIA_CUDA_SDK]# make

As I’m new to this, can someone please help me figure out the source of the error and correct it.

Thanks!

As root, run:

yum install freeglut-devel

darkmav · May 16, 2009, 7:09pm

Thanks so much for your help. I can compile now, but when I run deviceQuery, I get the following error message:

[codebox]

[root@farpoint release]# ./deviceQuery

./deviceQuery: error while loading shared libraries: libcudart.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[root@farpoint release]#

[/codebox]

seibert · May 16, 2009, 11:12pm

The linker cannot find the CUDA libraries. You need to run:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

darkmav · May 17, 2009, 3:32am

I did that, but I get the same error. I also tried the exact command you mentioned. Here is my .bash_profile listing:

[codebox]

[root@farpoint release]# more ~/.bash_profile

.bash_profile

if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then

. ~/.bashrc

export PATH

unset USERNAME

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/cuda/bin

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

[root@farpoint release]#

[/codebox]

And here’s the error listing:

[codebox]

[root@farpoint release]# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

[root@farpoint release]# ./deviceQuery

./deviceQuery: error while loading shared libraries: libcudart.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[root@farpoint release]# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

[root@farpoint release]# ./deviceQuery

./deviceQuery: error while loading shared libraries: libcudart.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[root@farpoint release]#

seibert · May 17, 2009, 3:39am

Oops, I screwed that up. The libraries are of course in the lib/ directory. That line should have been:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

Sorry for the confusion.

darkmav · May 17, 2009, 3:50am

Awesome, thanks a ton seibert!
