Installing the CUDA SDK Tool Chain

Before you can debug a CUDA program, you must download and install the CUDA SDK software from NVIDIA using the following steps:

• Visit the NVIDIA CUDA Zone download page:

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

• Select Linux as your operating system

• Download and install the CUDA SDK Toolkit for your Linux distribution (64-bit)

By default, the CUDA SDK Toolkit is installed under /usr/local/cuda/. The nvcc compiler driver is installed in /usr/local/cuda/bin, and the CUDA 64-bit runtime libraries are installed in /usr/local/cuda/lib64.

You may wish to:

• Add /usr/local/cuda/bin to your PATH environment variable.

• Add /usr/local/cuda/lib64 to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
