Macintosh, CUDA, OS X 10.9, backwards installation

[HundredsAnd100s]

I accidentally installed Indigo before CUDA and now can't get Indigo to recognize CUDA (OpenCL shows), even after uninstalling Indigo, reinstalling the CUDA drivers, rebooting (that was magical thinking, there) and reinstalling Indigo. And various permutations.

The software is Indigo 3.4.18, CUDA driver from Nvidia 5.5.28. I'm running OS X 10.9. What am I missing? It's going to be obvious, or perhaps a Mavericks thing? Thanks in advance.

For what it's worth, CUDA rendering worked beautifully on this machine in 10.8.x, but I remembered to upgrade the CUDA drivers first then.

No luck, I'm afraid. I uninstalled Indigo and installed the CUDA toolkit (there's an OSX 10.9-specific version, though no version number difference) before installing 3.6.23. On the positive side, OpenCL rendering now works. But still no CUDA support is apparent.

Is there a log generated by the beta I can examine?

At least on the PC you need to install the NVIDIA GPU drivers to get CUDA not the Toolkit, maybe here is the misunderstanding.

For Indigo OpenCL is afaik better maintained, and the CUDA render path rather a relict from old days, so if OpenCL works for you, you are already with the best GPU rendermode

Excellent, then! OpenCL it is. Thank you for your help, Zom-B

Zom-B, did you notice some rendering speedup with Mavericks and its improved OpenCL?

No, noticed nothing! But that maybe resulting in the absence of a Mac in my belongings ^^
(does this sentence even make any sense in english??? )

On a second check, it means that having noticed no improvements is maybe the cause for you not to own a Mac. Like, a punition ^^

But that maybe [the] result[] [of] the absence of a Mac in my belongings ^^ is the shortest correction imho.

"But that maybe resulting in" means "the consequence might be".

Sorry Zom-B I'm really bored

Comme çi, comme ça.

Maybe 5% better? At least it's not worse, and since Mavericks is free: give it a try!
