我正在使用cuda-sdk和 cuda-toolkit包。 我尝试以普通用户身份运行cuda-gdb简单的程序可以产生：

Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?

fatal: The CUDA driver initialization failed. (error code = 1)
如果我以 root 身份运行cuda-gdb，它的行为正常：

测试程序driver.cu为：
// needed for nvcc with gcc 4.7 and iostream
#undef _GLIBCXX_ATOMIC_BUILTINS
#undef _GLIBCXX_USE_INT128
#include <iostream>
#include <thrust/device_vector.h>
#include <thrust/host_vector.h>
__global__
void set_vector(int *a)
{
// get thread id
int id = threadIdx.x + blockIdx.x * blockDim.x;
a[id] = id;
__syncthreads();
}
int main(void)
{
// settings
int len = 10; int trd = 10;
// allocate vectors
thrust::device_vector<int> vd(len);
// get the raw pointer
int *a = thrust::raw_pointer_cast(vd.data());
// call the kernel
set_vector<<<1,trd>>>(a);
// print vector
for (int i=0; i<len; i++)
std::cout << "vd[" << i << "] = " << vd[i] << std::endl;
return 0;
}
driver.c使用以下命令编译：
$ nvcc -g -G -gencode arch=compute_20,code=sm_20 driver.cu -o driver
如何在没有根权限的情况下运行cuda-gdb？
更多信息：nvidia-smi的输出是：

显示器连接到 Quadro，我在特斯拉上运行 CUDA 应用程序。
谢谢。从它的声音来看，您的问题是所需的设备节点未初始化。通常，运行 X 将创建 CUDA 软件堆栈与硬件通信所需的设备节点。当 X 未运行时(如此处的情况所示(，以 root 身份运行会创建节点。普通用户由于缺少权限而无法创建节点。在没有 X 的情况下运行 Linux 系统时，推荐的方法是以 root 身份运行以下脚本(来自 http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/DevZone/docs/html/C/doc/CUDA_Getting_Started_Linux.pdf 的入门指南(
#!/bin/bash
/sbin/modprobe nvidia
if [ "$?" -eq 0 ]; then
# Count the number of NVIDIA controllers found.
NVDEVS=`lspci | grep -i NVIDIA`
N3D=`echo "$NVDEVS" | grep "3D controller" | wc -l`
NVGA=`echo "$NVDEVS" | grep "VGA compatible controller" | wc -l`
N=`expr $N3D + $NVGA - 1`
for i in `seq 0 $N`; do
mknod -m 666 /dev/nvidia$i c 195 $i
done
mknod -m 666 /dev/nvidiactl c 195 255
else
exit 1
fi
请注意，您需要在每次启动时重新创建设备节点，因此最好将此脚本(或类似脚本(添加到启动序列中。
@Till ： 对作为:)答案的问题表示歉意。 我是SO的新手，没有足够的声誉来创建评论。
此问题
已在最新的 Nvidia 驱动程序 (304.60( 和最新版本的 cuda (5.0.35( 中修复。 cuda-gdb不需要根权限即可运行。
