I am trying to set up CUDA on a macbook pro with an 8600M GT. I’ve tried multiple versions of CUDA, and finally am able to get deviceQuery to work with 2.2 and 2.3a. Currently I have 2.3a installed. However, when I try to run bandwidthTest, or any of the other example programs, it fails:
[codebox]/Developer/GPU Computing/C/bin/darwin/release$ ./deviceQuery
