I am interested and struggling to learn and work on CUDA and attempting to setup a whole system to get it ready, while I already have spent plenty of time on this.

Setup: Asus K53SV notebook- https://www.asus.com/Notebooks/K53SV/specifications/, Windows 10, Nvidia GT 540M, Virtualbox(latest version), Ubuntu 14.04.

Problems: How to enable Nvidia card in virtual box?

Installing appropriate nvidia driver and cuda tool kit?

Is there also a way to define virtual nvidia card in virtualbox, which can be used in accordance with CUDA development tool kit?

I would really appreciate any kind of help and suggestions in this regard.

  • Untested but provided the graphics card is not in use in the host (i.e. have the possibility to switch to the Intel Core i integrated graphics), and the Nvidia GT540M supports this (which I don't know) we may be able to pass through the PCI to the VM: http://askubuntu.com/questions/202926/how-to-use-nvidia-geforce-m310-on-ubuntu-12-10-running-as-guest-in-virtualbox – Takkat Dec 01 '15 at 17:58
  • I gave up on working on CUDA toolkit on ubuntu14.04 in VM. No I am having Ubuntu 14.04 and Cuda toolkit 7.5-18 installed (atleast I think so). Now... while i try to make the sample i am having the following Warning message "simpleGLES is not supported on Linux x86_64 - waiving". Any suggestion to solve this problem. – Asad Jamal Dec 03 '15 at 13:34
