Failure in running CUDA sample after cuda 8.0 installation
I installed the cuba8.0 on ubuntu 16 by following the steps on http://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html#axzz4aZ4Q3q7v
Then execute the confirmation measurement. After that, I run the make and bump into erros like the following.
$make
...
nvcc warning : The 'compute_20', 'sm_20', and 'sm_21' architectures are deprecated, and may be removed in a future release (Use -Wno-deprecated-gpu-targets to suppress warning). /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lnvcuvid
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Then, I checked the information of the system

So, what else can I try?
The root cause is the linker can't find libnvcuvid and driver version of make file shall be 375 (as shown in the post). Therefore, use the following command in the folder
~/NVIDIA_CUDA-8.0_Samples/$find . -type f -execdir sed -i 's/UBUNTU_PKG_NAME = "nvidia-367"/UBUNTU_PKG_NAME = "nvidia-375"/g' '{}' ;
