Does anyone know how to compile CUDA on linux/mac using CPU architecture instead of a Nvidia GPU?

I cannot make "nvcc" compile properly.

You may just have the wrong source file :

http://www.nvidia.com/content/cuda/cuda-downloads.html

This is a good place to find the right version, they have bash files for all the different distro/cpu arch.

Also make sure you have the right GCC version and the corresponding kernel for the distro you are using.

I have mainly ATI cards so OpenCL ftw!

If you don't mind me asking, what are you doing with CUDA? Making a new UO server software taking advantage of parallel computing using GPUs?

Those are the main tools you need to program with CUDA, thats not the issue :p

I think I've found a solution, thank you anyway. http://impact.crhc.illinois.edu/mcuda.aspx

Cana parallel computing its the future so I'm just learning

Nice, I didn't even know you could use it without Nvidia GPU. I was looking for answer to the same question a while back and found OpenCL instead. You should check that out too. It can take advantage of most ATI and Nvidia GPUs in addition to CPUs.
