great... now you can download cuda 6.5 and get some speed improvement...

most of the time newer is better, well cuda 7.0 doesn't belong to these cases...

yeah, this can be a "fun" experience requiring much patience.

can you provide links to the tips and tricks you used?

here's some stuff I found.

For Cuda:

and of course it took me until install attempt #12 to realize you can just hit ctrl-c to get through that stupid long license agreement.

I also found that updating linux (with sudo apt update, then upgrade or whatever) constantly causes my miners to get killed. I've managed to recover by just reinstalling Cuda (I think). I also reinstall the drivers, but the cuda install is what finally gets it going again.
