GPU clients in Linux under WINE

[ccperf721p]

Looks like nvidia wants to make you go to site to download the toolkit. Grab it from here and move it to the gpu folder. then chmod +x
Thank You

A feather in the cap Daniel! He helped his first virgin. DON'T get any dirty ideas! You 'ol men can be unpredictable wit a virgin mentioned!

I'm glad I'm on the other side of the state!

I only dared to try because I have Linux Gurus watching over me! LOL

This is odd. Even after putting the file in th Folding folder-Iget this:

chmod +x NVIDIA_CUDA_Toolkit_2.0beta2_Ubuntu7.10_x86.run
chmod: cannot access `NVIDIA_CUDA_Toolkit_2.0beta2_Ubuntu7.10_x86.run': No such file or directory


EDIT: I tried to run the last two under SU with same result.

[ccperf721p]

Are you sure you are in the right directory when you run chmod?

cd ~/folding/gpu

Sorry it took so long to get back, forgot I had an appointment for some tattoo work.

[PorPorMe]

I had not put it in the /gpu folder but I have now with the same resuls. Might starting from the beginning help?

EDIT: Ijust tried to install the SMP client with the same results. The download was succesfull but -config came back as no file or directory.

[ccperf721p]

If you could, open up a terminal and type

ls ~/folding/gpu

Paste the output

[PorPorMe]

ls ~/folding/gpu
thankyou_linux.html?url=%2Fcompute%2Fcuda%2F2.0-Beta2%2Flinux%2Ftoolkit%2FNVIDIA_CUDA_Toolkit_2.0b eta2_Ubuntu7.10_x86.run

I'll start agian tomorrow-I'm tired and am going to read a bit before bed.

This doesn't work, Cliff. I installed Umbutu 9.04 x64 on my #1 rig, went thru the same steps and am getting exactly the same results. no such file or directory even though I had to download the file and place it into the Gpu folder.

[ccperf721p]

Alright, when I get home, (early today going on vacation), I will fire up my Mint rig and see what the hell is going on.

First off, if you keep wiping the drive every time we have a little issue it will never get done and you might as well go back to windows..

Open a terminal and

cd ~/folding/gpu && rm -r ~/folding/gpu/*

Then do

wget http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/2_0/linux/toolkit/NVIDIA_CUDA_Toolkit_2.0_ubuntu7.10_x86.run

sudo sh NVIDIA_CUDA_Toolkit_2.0_ubuntu7.10_x86.run

Could that be an ownership problem? If root owns the directory for some reason, maybe chmod can't be executed until chown takes ownership...although that really shouldn't happen in /home/*user*

[PorPorMe]

That worked perfict Cuda is installed.

EDIT: Sorry it took some time-I fall asleep.

As we move forward we grow in POWER! Well done PPM! ":O}

[PorPorMe]

It's Cliff that deserves the credit! Well done.

[QUOTE=ccperf721p;498262]First off, if you keep wiping the drive every time we have a little issue it will never get done and you might as well go back to windows..

My #2 rig is a dedicated folding rig that now has Mint 7 on it-I'm mainly working from it.
I thought just mabe your commands might work in Unbunto so I installed it as a duel boot on my #1 rig-0nly problem was windows wouldn't boot.
When all is said and done, #2 will stay with Mint and I will try agian to have XP and Linux duel boot on My #1. no problem.

EDIT: I have Wine and Cuda toolkit installed on both.

Credit goes to Sydney at forums.bf2s.com for this guide. It covers ubuntu and derivatives such as Mint.. There have been a few issues that have arisen since the guide by Sydney was written. The latest set of nvidia drivers that will work with this guide are 180.60, Anything later than that set will not work. Also the 180.60 drivers will likely not install against a 2.6.30 or later kernel. Shouldn't be a problem for most as I believe the latest Ubuntu/Mint kernel is a 2.6.29 which is just right for this.

Open up a terminal, copy and pasting from within the code tags will do the job.

We need to make some directories.

I prefer to split the gpu from the cpu, so

mkdir -p ~/folding/gpu

grab the cuda package.

wget http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/2_0/linux/toolkit/NVIDIA_CUDA_Toolkit_2.0_ubuntu7.10_x86.run

Then install it.

sudo sh NVIDIA_CUDA_Toolkit_2.0_ubuntu7.10_x86.run

just hit enter when prompted for install location.
Nest is linking the toolkit.

sudo sh -c "echo '/usr/local/cuda/lib' > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/cuda.conf" && sudo ldconfig

Next, install wine.

sudo apt-get install wine

32 bit libraries

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

wine notepad

Then close the notepad window after it opens. We only run the notepad command to put the wine directories in place.

wget http://www.gpu2.twomurs.com/wrapper2ndgen/2.1/cudart.dll.so -O ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/cudart.dll && ln -s ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/cudart.dll ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/nvcuda.dll

ldd ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/cudart.dll

ldd /usr/local/lib/wine/nvcuda.dll.so

 cd ~/folding/gpu

wget http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandegroup/folding/release/Folding@home-Win32-GPU_XP-623.zip

unzip Folding*

nice -n 18 wine Folding@home-Win32-GPU.exe -forcegpu nvidia_g80

Dual GPU is pretty simple, just create a gpu1 folder, unzip the windows exe into it, cd into that directory and run

nice -n 18 wine Folding@home-Win32-GPU.exe -forcegpu nvidia_g80 -gpu 1

Let me know if any of these fail

[PorPorMe]

My Mom is visiting and I have been out to my Aunts. I'll do this in the morning.
