Hi all,

I am using Dell Precision 6510 with VGA NVIDIA Corporation GT216GLM [Quadro FX 880M]. I want to install CUDA for my BLFS OS with Xfce Desktop Environment.

The questions:
1. Can I use CUDA with that VGA? I want to test package like Chrono with module that requires CUDA
2. If I can, then how? I see the source tarball from here
https://developer.download.nvidia.co...source/11.7.0/

Then I have checked to compile it works, but CUDA can't be installed,

I have found out when compiling that it is missing cuda.h then I use cuda.h I found on internet(github) so I can compile CUDA. Is it wrong to do what I did? Is the link to get CUDA tarball is wrong or perhaps I have to use certain compiling scripts that have worked and tested.

Based on this link https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/...m-source/54145

You cannot build CUDA from source.

Thanks anak_bawang,

sadly nvidia does not want to create CUDA source can be installed for LFS OS.

Thanks for the link. Is it you who asked the question at their official website? haha.
