Hi all,
I've just installed the CUDA 3.0b and PyCUDA 0.94beta and I still get
the same problem. Any other ideas?

Thanks for the quick reply Bryan. Indeed, I'm not using CUDA 3.0b - in
fact the fact that it had come out totally passed me by! Does this mean
that for the next release of PyCUDA we will be able to have BLAS access
working with PyCUDA? I seem to remember this driver/runtime API was the
issue there. And I think you must be right that it's the problem here
too. Thanks!

probably uses the runtime API. Before CUDA 3.0b, trying to interoperate
between the two causes segmentation faults like what you seem to be seeing.

library, in this case chag:pp [1] which is a header file only library,
along with PyCUDA. What I'm trying to do is to use their compaction
algorithm on a pycuda array. I've successfully built a DLL from a C++
file which basically does this:

Possibility 2: I can't pass pycuda data to the DLL file and this causes
something to break somewhere.
