After reading through various posts on this forum, google and of course the release notes I’d tracked this message:
“Unable to load cuda library. CUDA Visual Profiler device features will be disabled.”
Down to one of two things:
-
CUDA library was not being load from the LD_library_path
-
cudaprof is not recognising my system properly
I’m happy that I’ve ruled out point 1 by setting the LD_library_path numerous times and being able to see that cudaprof can see this in its environment settings. So that leaves point 2!
Running ./deviceQuery from the SDK gives:

So I know that I was able to compile and run CUDA test SDKs and they can determine my devices but why won’t the CUDA visual profiler?
I’m running Fedora 10 x86_64 with what I think are the latest beta drivers: 185.19 (hmmmm looks like there is now 185.18.04 which is newer… will test)
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
