[Bug 1401355] Re: package nvidia-opencl-icd-331-updates (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libnvidia-opencl.so.331.113', which is also in package nvidia-opencl-icd-331 331.113-0ubuntu0.0.4

 

Guys, while we appreciate efforts to post the (possible) solutions -
WHY, OH WHY CAN'T YOU POST A PROPER "HOW TO", please?

Semi-cooked solutions are simply no good to people who are not from
IT/developers. Stuff like:

"so just after :

 export CUDA_HOME=/usr/local/cuda-5.5

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${CUDA_HOME}/lib64

PATH=${CUDA_HOME}/bin:${PATH}

export PATH

Now we must edit the .bashrc ant put it inside in the end of the
archive, yes you can use gedit or other.

export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-5.5/bin:$PATH *(if you already had installed
the cuda tool kit installed , this will be there but check it is aways a
good choice. =])

Ok Almost there :

close it and on a terminal as root just

source .bashrc"

...is just completely inadequate for users with no programming
knowledge.

"So just after" means nothing at all to somebody who does not know
everything that you know. You need to say what is to be done exactly,
where, how to get there etc.

Honestly...

One sees this and one is hopeful. One starts and then one hits a
proverbial wall because the poster "forgets" to slow down and post ALL
THE STEPS to a possible solution...

Please, go back, edit it and post the proper instructions, please...
Pretty please!

And next time please remember that we are different...

Thanx a bunch!!!
