Hello all,

Could someone please help me get CUDA working on my MBPro. I have OS X 10.8.3, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M and CUDA 5 w all toolkits etc installed and a cc_config in my data folder. Here is my log. Thanks in advance.

If this is a dual-GPU MacBook Pro, then as far as I know, you can't. There is a problem with the CUDA driver, which the BOINC developers have asked Nvidia to fix, but so far they haven't come around to it. So since BOINC 7.0.47, BOINC stops trying to detect CUDA on dual-GPU Mac's. The simplest way there is to remove CUDA from the system.

Most projects that give out GPU applications now have a choice for OpenCL applications as well.
