Ubuntu12.04 experience in NVIDIA cuda5.5 Configuration

I forgot my configuration once. It's really sad to try again now... Please refer to the website for reference.

==================

Environment: Ubuntu 12.04 + Cuda5.5

1. Determine the installation environment:

The setup of CUDA development tools on a system running the appropriate version of Linux consists of a few simple steps:

• Verify the system has a CUDA-capable GPU.
• Verify the system has a supported version of Linux.
• Verify the system has gcc installed.

See the official configuration Manual: http://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-getting-started-guide-for-linux/index.html

2. Download the image:

Https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads

Run now

3. install necessary Libraries

sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev build-essential libx11-dev libxmu-devlibxi-dev libgl1-mesa-glx libglu1-mesa libglu1-mesa-dev

4. Delete existing nvidia and blacklist

sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia*sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

Add blacklist. conf

lacklist amd76x_edacblacklist vga16fbblacklist nouveaublacklist rivafbblacklist nvidiafbblacklist rivatv

5. Press Ctrl + Alt + F1 and install it after login.

sudo service lightdm stopchmod +x cuda_5.5.22_linux_64.runsudo ./cuda_5.5.22_linux_64.run

Cuda5.5 integrates toolkit, sdk, and driver, so it is okay to agree to it all the way during installation.

6. The following installation result is displayed:

Driver: Installed
Toolkit: installeds In/Usr/Local/Cuda-5.0
Samples: Installation Failed. Missing Required Libraries.

That is, the SDK fails to be installed. The solution is also mentioned in this official manual.

7. Install SDK separately

Decompress the sdk:

sh cuda_5.5.22_linux_64.run -extract=/path/to/extract/dir/

To the root directory/path/to/extract/dir/to find the cuda-samples_5.5.22 _ *******. run, install

sh cuda-samples_5.5.22_*******.run

8. Path Configuration:

$ Sudo gedit etc/profile or ~ /. Bashrc

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/cuda-5.5/binexport LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-5.5/lib64:/lib

Make it take effect:

Source/etc/profile (corresponding to profile) or sudo ldconfig (corresponding to bashrc)

There is also a way to install sdk see http://askubuntu.com/questions/338907/how-to-install-cuda-5-5-under-ubuntu-12-04-lts-64-bit

9. Verify

See Official http://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-getting-started-guide-for-linux/index.html#verify-installation

Additional configuration references are attached:

1. theano + python Module

(Python is not installed in Ubuntu 12.04, but many modules in the system depend on python. Do not delete them unless necessary !!!)

PS: the new verification code function of CSDN is good. You can't see it clearly! I tried it 6 times before sending it out...
