CUDA 7.0 Error while compiling samples

Question

I'm trying to install CUDA 7.0 on Ubuntu 14.04. I've followed the installation instructions as outlined here. Specifically, I've followed steps in section 3.6 and Chapter 6. While compiling the examples (Section 6.2.2.2) using make, I'm getting the following error:

make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/cuda-7.0/samples/3_Imaging/cudaDecodeGL'

Answer 1

If you notice, there is -L/usr/lib/"nvidia-346". In my case, I have installed nvidia-349. What worked for me is to edit NVIDIA_CUDA-7.0_Samples/3_Imaging/cudaDecodeGL/findgllib.mk and change UBUNTU_PKG_NAME = "nvidia-346" to nvidia-349.
