However, after OpenSUSE update to the next major version, all the hell broke loose and X wouldn't start with some rather idiotic message (well, it actually would start with a black screen and a tiny, meaningless error dialog in the corner).

I used CUDA on OpenSUSE for a couple years. My normal way of talking with the Haswell box is via direct ethernet cable to my macbook - the minimalist in me would prefer to continue to do that with the GPU-augmented ATX-cased system, if possible. the DVI connectors: I have a small LCD monitor I can unbox if needed, but not sure if it has such outputs. Would downloading the cuda toolkit from the above link be a good thing to do while I await USPS delivery of the card? To the experts: So, just how much fun am I in for? (Mike, what other system details should I post here?) Host system hardware is an ATX-cased barebones Haswell (MSI Z87 mobo) running Debian. Persistent file with that to test installs You might consider booting from a live usb stick and using a I have done it several times and it is one of the hardest software Me: Does the card come with a linux-compatible tools-install CD?
#NVIDIA CUDA TOOLKIT 5.5 UBUNTU INSTALL#
I would ask on the forum about which to use (give them the stats ofĪlso the card only has dvi outputs (i think) so (unless you have dviĬables for your screen) you will need to do a "headless" install So you will need to add the repository OR use the binary "blob" installer


Well, for starters, the software is not in your *current* repository.īecause we have that set up for (i think) only open source software Me: Will probably RTFM and do the physical install, followed by the "in an ideal world" build-tools install cmd you mentioned, then call to tell you what error messages I got. It should be as simple as "apt-get install nvidia-cuda-toolkit" but it Me: How much setup will getting my system to talk to the card need, in your estimation?
