Tesla C1060 on asus P5ld2 "There is no device supporting cuda"

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Programming and Performance
1

Dear all,
I installed a Tesla C1060 on asus P5lD2 motherboard. On this machine I configured a S3 ViRGE/DX PCI videocard because I have only one PCi/Express slot on my motherboard. The OS is Ubuntu 8.10. Now my Bios configuraion have PCI slot as priority respect to PCI/Express.
After the installation of cudadriver_2.3_linux_32_190.18.run, cudatoolkit_2.3_linux_32_ubuntu8.10.run and cudasdk_2.3_linux.run I started the deviceQuery command but I recieved this output:

I don’t have idea if is an hardware or software problem
Thank you in advance for your help

I also got a “There is no device supporting CUDA” error message. In my case, the CUDA driver was not successfully installed, because of conflicting packages that were already present in Ubuntu (though I’m using 9.04, and the 64-bit version). Here’s what worked for me:

sudo apt-get remove nvidia-common linux-restricted-modules-common linux-restricted-modules-generic linux-restricted-modules-2.6.28-11-generic linux-generic

If you have any other Nvidia-related packages installed, remove those too (nvidia-glx, nvidia-glx-new, nvidia-kernel-common, etc.). Then uninstall and reinstall the CUDA driver using the program provided by Nvidia (cudadriver_2.3_linux_64_190.18.run, for the current 64-bit version). If you already installed the CUDA toolkit and SDK, I don’t think you’ll need to re-do those, but you might have to re-compile the SDK programs (not sure about that).

In any case, removing these Ubuntu-provided Nvidia-related packages made ./deviceQuery work properly for me and detected my CUDA-enabled card (GTX 260).

Thank you very much for your help,
but I tried your advice without changes. I don’t now if there are other packages to unistall that can prevent the correct installation. Can you show me other packages to uninstall or other attempts to follow?
Thank you in advance for your help.

You used pci VGA card for X-Window display, so the cuda module was not loaded to system.

Although this is for none X-window system, I think it can solve your problem too.

Thank you very much for your help.

I will try without X-server but How or When can I use the script?

Thank you in advance

You can use X-window.
But you must insert module and make node by yourself.

Or you can write the following command to a script file.

modprobe nvidia
N3D=/sbin/lspci | grep -i NVIDIA | grep "3D controller" | wc -l
NVGA=/sbin/lspci | grep -i NVIDIA | grep "VGA compatible controller" | wc -l

N=expr $N3D + $NVGA - 1
for i in seq 0 $N; do
mknod -m 666 /dev/nvidia$i c 195 $i
RETVAL=$?
[ “$RETVAL” = 0 ] || exit $RETVAL
done

mknod -m 666 /dev/nvidiactl c 195 255

====================End of File======================================

and excute the following command.

#sudo sh your_script_file_name

This script will make device node for you.
And it works at my platform.

This is my script file.

#!/bin/bash
