CUDA

If the version of CUDA available from your distro is not adequate, manually install CUDA.

Tip

The version of CUDA you use will determine compatibility with various GPU generations. See CUDA compatibility for more info.

Select the appropriate run file based on your desired CUDA version and architecture according to CUDA Toolkit Archive.

wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/11.4.2/local_installers/cuda_11.4.2_470.57.02_linux.run \
  --progress=bar:force:noscroll -q --show-progress -O ./cuda.run
chmod a+x ./cuda.run
./cuda.run --silent --toolkit --toolkitpath=/usr --no-opengl-libs --no-man-page --no-drm
rm ./cuda.run

npm dependencies

Install npm dependencies.

npm install

Build

Attention

Ensure you are in the build directory created during the clone step earlier before continuing.

cmake ..
make -j ${nproc}

cpack -G DEB  # optionally, create a deb package
cpack -G RPM  # optionally, create a rpm package
