The initial module release contains the 4.2.x CUDA production release; the recently released version 5.0 is not yet provided.

Components

There are three components to CUDA 4.2:

  1. The CUDA toolkit, containing the compiler nvcc, C include files, and libraries. Load this component as a module to compile and run applications that use GPUs on Carbon.
  2. The driver – a kernel module that is installed on Carbon nodes that have a GPU.
  3. The GPU Computing SDK - code samples and white papers to help you get started writing software with CUDA C/C++. Available on Carbon:
    packed
    ~soft/cuda/dist/4.2/gpucomputingsdk_4.2.9_linux.{run,tar.gz}
    unpacked
    ~soft/cuda/NVIDIA_GPU_Computing_SDK-4.2
    If you wish to unpack yourself, supply as CUDA install path: /opt/soft/cuda-4.2.9-1 . For reference, here is what happens:
$ module load cuda
$ ~soft/cuda/dist/4.2/gpucomputingsdk_4.2.9_linux.run
Script started, file is ./gpucomputingsdk_4.2.9_linux.log
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

Enter install path (default ~/NVIDIA_GPU_Computing_SDK):
INPUT> /home/share/soft/cuda/NVIDIA_GPU_Computing_SDK-4.2 

Located CUDA at /opt/soft/cuda-4.2.9-1
If this is correct, choose the default below.
If it is not correct, enter the correct path to CUDA

Cannot create second readline interface, falling back to dumb.
