- _delirium 12y agoYep, just apt-get install nvidia-cuda-toolkit. It's currently v5.5.22 (a mid-2013 version). Debian started working on a packaging of v6.x in the "experimental" repository a few weeks ago, which will probably migrate to regular Debian and Ubuntu releases once it's tested a bit.
- pantalaimon 12y agoWell it won't be in Ubuntu before 15.04 so it keeps consistent in lagging a year behind.
- shogunmike 12y agoI actually tried this a few months ago. I had some issues trying to run the typical vector addition "Hello world!" examples on my system. I'm not 100% sure but I also think that by installing the nvidia-cuda-toolkit package it leaves out the CUDA samples. These contain the deviceQuery and bandwidthTest scripts necessary to check that CUDA is functional. Admittedly I have two consumer cards in SLI, so that may have affected the install. It could also have been incompatibility between the actual Nvidia display drivers and the various dependencies. It's a bit messy!
