Erro building SDK code example

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Programming and Performance

I got the following building error when I tried to run an SDK project example. Any ideas for fixing it are appreciated.

I initially had compile problems and it turned out I didn’t have all the dependencies installed.

There is a library that gets installed when you install the Nvidia graphics driver that is required for the SDK to compile. Also I believe some of the examples require GLUT. On my system (Suse 10) just having the GLUT package installed wasn’t enough I had to also install the GLUT-devel package as well.
