    <p>Is there a way to -- from the terminal -- query for the latest toolkit/SDK version???</p> <p>e.g. Does NVIDIA have some sort of server that one can log in and issue a discrete command to get the latest SDK and toolkit??</p> <p>...................................................................................<br> <strong>Background:</strong><br></p> <p>I wrote a small script to perform an unattended install of the core CUDA components -- dev drivers, toolkit, and SDK. </p> <p>Note the drivers already have an automated updated, in that I pass them a flag that tells them to check for the latest version, so I only need to download once and all future updates to the CUDA install will now work</p> <p>Had some initial errors, but worked it out with a bit of help. <a href="https://superuser.com/questions/412259/expect-script-inside-bash-script-optional-statement">[1]</a><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10150939/formatting-expect-script-inside-of-user-command-in-bash-script">[2]</a>.</p> <p>The <code>init</code> is to take down the <code>X11</code> server if one is running, in order to complete the video dev driver install. The <code>yum</code> is to install <code>expect</code> if it's not present.</p> <pre><code>#!/bin/bash CR="\r" YES="\"Yes\r\"" INSTALL_PATH_REQUEST="\"Enter install path\"" CUDA_PATH_REQUEST="\"Enter CUDA install path\"" UNINSTALL_REQUEST="\"Would you like to uninstall?\"" TOOLKIT=`ls -t cudatoolkit* | head -n 1` TOOLKIT_EXPECT="sh $TOOLKIT" SDK=`ls -t gpucomputingsdk* | head -n 1` SDK_INSTALL_PATH="\"/usr/local/CUDA_SDK\r\"" SDK_EXPECT="sh $SDK" DUMMY="dummy" /bin/su root -c "yum -q -y install expect expectk; /sbin/init 3; sh `ls -t NVIDIA*|head -n 1` -s --update -a -X; /usr/bin/expect &lt;&lt;EOF; spawn $TOOLKIT_EXPECT expect -timeout 300 $INSTALL_PATH_REQUEST send $CR expect -timeout 300 { {Would you like to uninstall?} { send $YES exp_continue } expect -timeout 500 $DUMMY eof } EOF /usr/bin/expect &lt;&lt;EOF; spawn $SDK_EXPECT expect -timeout 300 $INSTALL_PATH_REQUEST send $SDK_INSTALL_PATH expect -timeout 300 $CUDA_PATH_REQUEST send $CR expect -timeout 500 $DUMMY EOF /sbin/init 5" </code></pre> <p>If someone can figure out how to query the SDK and toolkit remotely for updates, this would be the (almost) perfect unattended installer. Any other advice would also be appreciated if you think I'm missing anything.</p> <p>P.S. You need the dev driver, toolkit, and SDK files in the same directory for this to work. When it asks you for the password, that's asking for your root password. I choose to install the SDK in <code>/usr/local/CUDA_SDK/</code> to allow all users access. If you wish to install it in another location, change it in the script.</p>

    1. COThis is implicitly for Linux distributions which use yum for package management and don't have X11 running in run state 3, I presume?

    2. COYes on the latter, not sure on the former -- does CUDA SDK work with YUM? If so I was unaware and I would switch to that surely... But if that's the case, yes it would be useful for the former case as well.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
