  Finally, run the graphical user interface `boincmgr` and follow the instructions to attach a new project to your BOINC core client. A non-graphical alternative to `boincmgr` is the `boinccmd` program, which is included in the `boinc-client` package.
  
+ ==== NVidia CUDA ====
+ 
+ For support of GPU offloading on NVidia cards, feel invited to install the package DebianPkg:boinc-nvidia-cuda. It ensures to have the required extra dependencies for CUDA programs installed, i.e. DebianPkg:nvidia-glx and DebianPkg:libcuda1 packages.
+ 
+ It should all be performed by the postinst scripts of the package. Anyway, if there are problems, verify the boinc user to be a member of the video group. If a card is detected but the apps don't work, also try installing the 32bit variants of support libraries like  libcuda1-ia32 and lib32cudart4 packages, if these are available to you.
+ 
+ ==== AMD Stream / OpenCL ===
+ 
+ This Wiki has a dedicated page on ATIstream/OpenCL intallation instructions. The DebianPkg:boinc-amd-opencl drags in the dependencies. On amd64, also install the 32bit libraries, but other than for NVidia, use the multiarch principle.

  === Installation from source ===
  
  To install the BOINC packages from source, a `deb-src` line pointing to Debian's main archive must be present in your `/etc/apt/sources.list` file. Also make sure that you have the `build-essential` and `fakeroot` packages installed on your system. Curiosity is a good motivation to inspect and compile the source. Whenever you feel more serious to improve or to port the code to a novel platform please check out the aforementioned [[http://pkg-boinc.alioth.debian.org|Alioth project]] that offers a Git/Subversion repository with the latest source and a technically easier way to communicate your changes back to us. The BOINC[[/Development]] pages present more detailed instructions.

  If `dpkg-buildpackage` fails to build the BOINC packages this probably indicates a bug in our sources and it is worth reporting it to the pkg-boinc-devel mailing list pkg-boinc-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org.

- For support of GPU offloading on Nvidia cards, install the Debian DebianPkg:nvidia-glx and DebianPkg:libcuda1 packages. You will also need to add the boinc user to the video group.

- A user has also reported that boinc will detect the Nvidia gpu when the above is installed, but when running gpu tasks, get computation errors. If you have this problem, try installing the libcudart4 libcuda1-ia32 and lib32cudart4 packages, if these are available to you.
