Re: Fedora 14 and Nvidia 460 Fermi

[Chris Kloiber]

Is that using rpmfusion packages, or nVidia's blob installer? The company I work for offers CUDA servers now, and they seem to be running the same nvidia driver version I use on my desktop (without CUDA, obviously). It seems the CUDA libraries aren't packaged by rpmfusion, but may get installed by the blob installer. I would try the nVidia installer from their website, and if that works compare the libraries installed to the rpmfusion packages. Find the differences and bug rpmfusion packagers to package the extra libraries if possible, perhaps as a separate "nvidia-cuda" package?

Hope that helps.

Hello there







Has anyone out there had similar problems with this card.

This is one hot damn card and the only real support is with Windows 7 x64





Seti at home is where I am having the real problems under Fedora.







I really miss Fedora

I just a had a big surprise when I got a shiny new Nvidia 460 GTX for Christmas. I tried to get the Cuda device working under Fedora 14 x86_64 and there is no support out yet for Cuda 3.2 All the Video works ok under the Nvidia 260 driver package but getting Cuda to work is another thing all together. I am running Windows now and everything works flawlessly but I miss the security under Fedora. I am seeing now that I have to wait for linux drivers and cuda support to become available under fedora 14 No matter what I do with Cuda 3.2 under Fedora it just errors out all the cuda workunits With this card under Windows I get 860 gflops / second computation speed with double precision computing. Under Fedora the speed is cut in half and errors out all the Cuda workunits
