Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Programming and Performance

Dear All,

I am new to this CUDA on Linux. When I tried to run the make command in /root/NVIDIA_CUDA_SDK/ directory I got the following error.

In file included from ./…/common/inc/paramgl.h:13,
from src/paramgl.cpp:8:
./…/common/inc/GL/glut.h:60:20: error: GL/glu.h: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [obj/release/paramgl.cpp_o] Error 1
make: *** [lib/libparamgl.so] Error 2

I googled and did not find any useful information. I have also installed the NVIDIA driver for OpenGL 3.0 (NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.11.02-pkg1.run).

I am currently using the NVIDIA GPU - GeForce 9800 GT card. I am able to run the bandwidthTest sample without any issues.

Please let me know what am I missing here.

Thanks in advance.

With Regards,

You need to install the freeglut development package for your distro.

By the way, I am using the CENTOS 5.2 (which is equivalent to RHEL).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,

Thanks tmurray.

I have downloaded the freeglut RPM (from http://atrpms.net/dist/el3/freeglut/) and tried to install the RPM. However, it end up with the failed dependencies and the errors are as shown below.

warning: freeglut-devel-2.4.0-9.el3.at.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 66534c2b

error: Failed dependencies:

freeglut = 2.4.0-9.el3.at is needed by freeglut-devel-2.4.0-9.el3.at.i386

glib-devel is needed by freeglut-devel-2.4.0-9.el3.at.i386

libGLU-devel is needed by freeglut-devel-2.4.0-9.el3.at.i386

libXext-devel is needed by freeglut-devel-2.4.0-9.el3.at.i386

So, I need to install the remaining packages. I will try to download and install them.

Thanks for your suggestion.

I have downloaded the above 3 devel packages and tried to install them on my Linux (CENTOS) box. However, I end up with the same errors like each devel package showed some dependency errors. So, I guess, this is not a correct solution. If I download and install the other dependencies, then they may ask for other dependencies.

Could any one please help in resolving the issue at my end?

Thanks in advance.
