    Hi,
    I am planning to use Nvidia graphics cards in some power4 and power5 systems with AIX platform. I will be using CUDA to program these GPU. Can anyone give information on whether I can get the graphics drivers for AIX? In the NVidia site, I came across drivers for windows, linux and solaris only.

    Thanks,
    Anamitra

    Hi,
    These graphics cards are not supported i.e. there are no drivers.
    You will have to write your own!

    Sorry N

    Just curious, what graphics card did you intend to use?

    Keep in mind that you need newer Power6 systems for PCIe slots. The older Power 4 & 5 systems have PCI (PCI-X) slots only. To my knowledge, only more recent Nvidia cards support CUDA and they are mostly (all?) PCIe cards.
