    Red face NVIDIA 650m not recognized?

    I successfully followed the tutorial on this page

    http://eternalvoid.net/tutorials/linux-optimus-gt650m/

    and got my 650m to work.

    However my GPU is now listed as:

    -OpenGL-
    Vendor : Intel Open Source Technology Center
    Renderer : Mesa DRI Intel(R) Ivybridge Mobile
    Version : 3.0 Mesa 9.0
    Direct Rendering : Yes

    Is this correct?

    Also is there a simple way to check if my 650m is enabled to CUDA programming? I need it ASAP for an assignment so I need to know if it's working.

    Thanks!

    Did you try:

    $ nvidia-settings
    Best, Gnusci

    Bump.

    Need to know if I can fix this, or else I'll have to return this laptop.
