NVIDIA CUDA support

[jerramy]

I'd really like to get up and running with being able to develope CUDA software for a NVIDIA GPUs.  I grabbed the nvidia-glx-dev.tcz extension, and followed the instructions in the info for nvidia-glx.tcz.

However, it doesn't seem to work, with the following sort of things in my dmesg:

nvidia: Unknown symbol agp_bind_memory
nvidia: Unknown symbol agp_enable
nvidia: Unknown symbol agp_backend_acquire
...

Any clue how I make these symbols "known"?

Has anyone had any success in developing CUDA applications for TinyCore?

When I try to run glxgears, I get the following messages:

Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual

Nevermind, I got GLX working, at least to the point where I can run glxgears.

Now I'm in the process of downloading the .run files for the SDK from NVIDIA, and will hopefully have some luck installing that.  Of course, NVIDIA doesn't have special files for Tiny Core Linux, only Ubuntu, RedHat, and OpenSUSE.  I'll have to give one of those a shot, and see how it works out.

have you found out about any cuda driver and toolkit versions which work with tinycorelinux already?
