I cannot get Boinc to see the gpu.

Don't know whether it corresponding to 190.x drivers, but exactly with this version (I did not install any previous versions) I found such a bug under openSUSE 11.2. No any attempts were found to fix it. Now I'm on Kubuntu, where the things are quite easily... At least in CUDA using for BOINC.

But I will glad to see if anyone could decribe me a way to make BOINC use GPU under openSUSE. Please....
