How to fix this error. Thanks in advance

The first clue is that you are trying to compile the 4.0.17 samples with the cuda 5.0.35 toolkit… I wouldn’t try that. Compile the samples that come with the CUDA 5 toolkit, and see if the issue goes away. Since CUDA 5.0, those samples are included in the toolkit itself. If it doesn’t work still, you might need to install GCC version 4.4 or 4.5 and use update-alternatives to select the older version as default.

To make it easier, I’d just install the CUDA 5.5 release candidate version (since it’s supported on the Ubuntu version you’re running). You probably won’t have to deal with installing/setting up an older GCC version to get it to compile the included samples and that version might get rid of bugs that might still be affecting earlier releases that you could run into.

Seems like either g++ is not installed, or it’s missing from your path. Try:

sudo apt-get install build-essential

If it is installed and still doesn’t work, you need to add g++ to your search path. See for example (old but relevant):

Went cardinal measures:
1)Reset G++ and GCC
2)Reinstalled the NVIDIA driver c 304.88 on 319.37
3)Established instead of cuda 5.5.run package of cuda-repo-ubuntu1204_5.5-0_i386.deb

And the miracle) Everything compiled without problems) Thanks everyone for the help
