Me too!!
I'm a bit surprised even there are no 64bit versions. I'm linking against libraries in a 64bit matlab environment, and require 64bit versions of each library to be available in order to produce a compatible mex file. The problems we are working on are vast in size so it's not even an option to downgrade to a cripple 32bit version of matlab. So pretty please get use some of the magic 64bit potion here. Cheers, Bart |

In fact I need it for Java on MacOS X. Java 6 only works in 64 bit. Now I need to run in Java 5 (32 bits).

aaarrrgghh, sorry about my linux-related post. Did not notice I was in the MacOs section.

CUDA for Mac OS X is 32bit only for now, so you cannot use it from a 64bit program.
We are considering adding a 64bit version |

[Mac newbie here]
Is Darwin so different from other Linux distros that the current Linux-x64 driver (with CUDA) won't work? Thanks! |

Thanks! it's not the distro, it is the kernel that is different. And yes it is the linux kernel versus the darwin kernel. Completely different. -------------------- greets,

OS X has quite a bit of source compatibility with Linux for user programs. Many programs that work on Linux can be recompiled with few changes on OS X because OS X has nearly all the same standard library functions as Linux. (Nearly all the software I write can be compiled on either platform, including CUDA programs.) OS X has no binary compatibility with Linux at all, however. You cannot take a binary executable compiled for Linux and run it directly on OS X. And, as E. D. Riedijk points out, OS X has a kernel ("Darwin") which is as different from Linux as Linux is different from Windows. There is no driver compatibility at all, at the source or binary level. |

Hi,
Any update on this? Is there a rough/preliminary roadmap that includes a 64 bit Mac OS X toolkit release...? Thanks |

Thanks Hi there, Frankly Nvidia, when there will be 64 bits Mac OSX toolkit? For me 32 bits is not even a option, it's simply impossible. Please release it soon! Alan |

FYI, there's an open bug report (568444) regarding this long standing problem.
Unfortunately no details can be displayed right now due to an "unexpected error"... Cheers |
