CUDA,Parrallel programming.
 

I am having Nvidia Geforce (GPU with cuda) but after switching to fedora i am unable to figuring out whether its enabled or not as i am taking a course on parallel programmin which requires cuda to be enabled to run the codes.
Thanks.

are you using the default installed nouveau driver????
or
did you black list it and install the kmod-nvidia
or use the NVIDIA.run


the nouveau driver will not use cuda tool kit 5


you need the nvidia driver
see the fedora forum GUIDE for installing it
"F17 Nvidia guide "
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=280750
and the WARNINGS on the nvidia dev pages about too new of a version of gcc

there is a fedora 16 version
https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads


unless you are using the old toolkit 4
that one has a fedora 13 build

What software are you writing, Jayesh? I didn't know this sort of thing was being DONE in India.....?

@resetreset .No, I am not making any software on it . I was just taking a course on coursera.com and in that course they were using cuda programming so I was trying to configure my machine for that.

Oh cool, I know about Coursera :)

Which course was that?

Its a course on "heterogeneous parallel programmin"
