Dear Amber Developers,
                                    I am trying to install AMBER12 in GPU.
To install CUDA version I have to install cuda toolkit and nvidia driver.
So, I have downloaded cudatoolkit_4.2.9_linux_64_rhel6.0.run and
devdriver_4.2_linux_64_295.41.run. Then I installed cuda toolkit. But,
whenever I tried to install driver I failed. The error message I am getting
is like - "you appear to be running X server. please exit X before
installing....." I think it is a common problem. I saw some solutions of
this problem in webpage. But, no process become helpful. To exit from X I
pressed ctrl+alt+backspace. It did not wrok. Then in another place saw a
instruction to press ctrl+alt+f4. When I did this I got a black screen.
Then I logged in there and tried to run the
devdriver_4.2_linux_64_295.41.run. But getting the same error message. So,
how can I overcome this problem? Please help.
