I currently use cuda on my FreeBSD laptop via the linuxlator (using the gentoo_stage_3 port and chrooting into it). The cuda run time works almost out of the box (if I recall correctly all you need to do is change modprobe since the run time tries to auto load the Linux kernel binary), and from there you can build and run cuda based apps. -- Jacob Frelinger jolly@thecoffinclub.com
