Which version of the source code do you have access to? I'm using the
read-only git repository of the main development trunk, sending
patches back to Zeke, which he puts into CVS. I'm not sure which of
those are making it over to v6.

I imagine you'll have to run configure again. When you do, the key
options you want are:
 --enable-fermi-gpu --with-cuda="/usr/local/cuda"
Note that on my machine:
[rge21@cudastation ~]$ which nvcc
/usr/local/cuda-7.5/bin/nvcc
[rge21@cudastation ~]$ ls -alF /usr/local/cuda
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 8 Jan  9 16:30 /usr/local/cuda -> cuda-7.5/
So if your CUDA installation went somewhere else, you'll have to
adjust that --with-cuda path.

Then when you compile, make sure the nvcc being used really is the one
you've set (things will likely fail horribly if this isn't the case).
If it isn't, you'll have to look in the configure file for:

#############################################################
# Nvidia CUDA enabling
############################################################
CUDA_DIR=""
with_cuda=""

and then comment out
# with_cuda=""
or it will override the directory you set on the command line.

Let me know if you need further help,

Richard
