Octane cuda crash at render.

[sleg]

Hey guys. I'm trying to run Octane on Linux 64bit.

I installed CUDA 3 and everything seem to go well.

Now after downloading the Octane demo and untar'ing it I found that it launched ok and I could load the demo scenes but as soon as I click a node in the graph (launching a render) the program crashes with the following error:

Code: Select all

Any ideas? I'm on Kubuntu 11.10 with cuda3 installe din the default /usr/local/cuda directory.

I'm guessing it could be due to my Nvidia drivers... Eesh, I hate installing those manually...

Isn´t the demo cuda4?

The demo is CUDA 3.2, although it should also work with a later version installed. If you installed CUDA 3.0 you need to get a more recent version.

Ah. Right. Thanks. I had cuda 4 installed originally but that didn't work, it seemed to throw a 'libcuda.so not found error'. Maybe I should have symlinked them to something octane could find. I do have cuda 3.0 now. will try with 3.2. Thanks a lot.

EDIT: Sentences that made no sense.
EDIT 2: Success! That worked. Thanks guys!
