Were you using some remote connection, like VNC, RDP ?..

Did you get the problem fixed since this post ? how ? I have the same problem and i suspect it’s because I’m connecting through different layers of VNC…  
VNC + ssh tunnel to machine 1 \> VNC to machine 2

No Mac Pro have IGP GeForce9400M MCP79, so you should be testing another computer than the expected Mac Pro.

saleem1000: this might help you (but it didn’t help me)

[url=“[The Official NVIDIA Forums | NVIDIA](http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=104198&hl=9400m)”][http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtop...98&hl=9400m[/url]](http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtop...98&hl=9400m%5B/url%5D)

I’ve reinstalled drivers after the toolkit install and still have the same problem as saleem. Compilation went fine (after make i386=1) and I’ve done the kextstat | grep CUDA to show the driver is loaded.

I’m stumped.

Call off the search. I installed a video driver for Leapord, the 2.3.0a driver, instead of the appropriate Snow Leapord driver: 2.3.1a.

Here’s the link if you have Snow Leapord:  
[url=“[http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/2\_3/drivers/cudadriver\_2.3.1a\_macos.pkg](http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/2_3/drivers/cudadriver_2.3.1a_macos.pkg)”][http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compu....3.1a\_macos.pkg[/url]](http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compu....3.1a_macos.pkg%5B/url%5D)

Snow Leapord is OS X version 10.6.\* btw.

Also remember that Cuda drivers, even newest cant work in 64 Bit Kernel Mode (= no cuda device).
