This makes sense since nothing needs to be displayed on a screen. On Wed, Dec 21, 2011 at 4:30 AM, Eric Appleman wrote: > CUDA doesn't need Bumblebee. > > https://launchpad.net/~aaron-haviland/+archive/cuda-4.0 > > __

Re: [Hybrid-graphics-linux] NVidia laptop for Linux

No, bumblebee uses the nvidia binary driver. nvidia doesn't support hybrid graphics, but they at least support single card. So, bumblebee explain to the system how to use the card with this driver. There are a lot of people using CUDA through bumblebee, although some are facing problems with it

Re: [Hybrid-graphics-linux] NVidia laptop for Linux

Ok I am a bit confused now. If NVIDIA does not provide a Linux driver is this _binary nvidia driver_ you mentioned written by the people at the bumblebee project ? More importantly will NVIDIA's CUDA SDK work well with this bumblebee driver on a hybrid NVIDA laptop card (I am thinking of the

Re: [Hybrid-graphics-linux] NVidia laptop for Linux

TBP/Bumblebee supports the opensource nouveau driver, but this driver does not provide CUDA support afaik. On Tue, Dec 20, 2011 at 8:43 AM, Albert Vilella wrote: > Although the open source nouveau drivers are constantly improving, I > think right now the only > solution is to use bumblebee/ironh

Re: [Hybrid-graphics-linux] NVidia laptop for Linux

Although the open source nouveau drivers are constantly improving, I think right now the only solution is to use bumblebee/ironhide, that internally uses the binary Nvidia drivers and CUDA SDK. On Tue, Dec 20, 2011 at 5:30 AM, Srimal Jayawardena wrote: > Thanks. > > Since NVIDIA does not have lin

Re: [Hybrid-graphics-linux] NVidia laptop for Linux

Thanks. Since NVIDIA does not have linux drivers for Optimus cards, is it possible to do CUDA with the Generic / OpenSource drivers? Cheers Srimal. On Sat, Dec 17, 2011 at 4:16 AM, Albert Vilella wrote: > Find here the Ubuntu 10.10 installation instructions for cuda on > Linux:https://github.

Find here the Ubuntu 10.10 installation instructions for cuda on Linux:https://github.com/run4flat/perl_nvcc/wiki/Installing It's more than a year old, so it may not work... On Fri, Dec 16, 2011 at 4:45 PM, Alexandre Saint wrote: > Hi, > > 2011/12/16 David Overcash : >> If you want to play it saf

I've got an Asus U33JC and can use CUDA via bumblebee/ironhide. On Fri, Dec 16, 2011 at 4:05 PM, David Overcash wrote: > If you want to play it safe, just get a laptop with a discrete graphics card > and no onboard graphics.  If you try to use Optimus with any CUDA based > work, you'll have to do

Re: [Hybrid-graphics-linux] NVidia laptop for Linux

If you want to play it safe, just get a laptop with a discrete graphics card and no onboard graphics. If you try to use Optimus with any CUDA based work, you'll have to do quite a bit of work on top of what you're already programming to get things to turn out well. :) I tend to think System 76 (

Hi I use Ubuntu/Linux as my primary OS and need to do some CUDA based GPU programming also. What laptop should I buy? (or which ones should I avoid?) Thanks in advance Srimal. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~hybrid-graphics-linux Post to
