Matlab crashes 2010a: Aborted (core dumped)

Hi we were trying to run GPUmat 0.270 on matlab in order to utilize the NVIDIA CUDA graphic card. GPUmat: http://gp-you.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=frontpage&Itemid=53

All CUDA SDK ran through C code, but GPUmat crashes matlab without any error message.

GPUstart.m and GPUmatSystemCheck.m both abort, I would appreciate any info on how I may troubleshoot this further, thank you!:

>> GPUmatSystemCheck * GPUmat system diagnostics * Running on -> "glnxa64" * Matlab ver. -> "7.10.0.499 (R2010a)" * GPUmat version -> 0.270 * GPUmat build -> 13-Dec-2010 * GPUmat architecture -> "glnxa64"

* ARCHITECTURE TEST * GPUmat architecture test -> passed.

* CUDA TEST * CUDA CUBLAS -> installed. * CUDA CUFFT -> installed. * CUDA CUDART -> installed.

* GPUmat device check Aborted (core dumped)

Here is the matlab (7.10) crash dump:

The MATLAB R2010b release of the Parallel Computing Toolbox contains support for NVIDIA GPU devices. If you are already licensed for the Parallel Computing Toolbox, then you may want to upgrade to R2010b.

That aside, if your R2010a installation of MATLAB worked properly before you integrated with GPUmat, then I would suggest contacting the GPUmat developers directly to correct the issue.

If your R2010a MATLAB installation crashes reproducibly even when you aren't using GPUmat, then (like Walter suggested) I think your best bet is to submit a service request using the link that appears below your crash dump.

[Walter Roberson]

Did it ever work for you? If not then I would treat it as an "installation problem" and contact Mathworks support; there is free support for installation issues.

[Xiaozhen]

I haven't got GPUmat to work on MATLAB, but matlab was definitely working fine in our lab. Thank you Walter.

[Walter Roberson]

Sorry, my response was based upon thinking that GPUmat was a Mathworks product.
