similar to: Trouble configuring R to use ACML

Hi, I'm following up to a post I made to r-help here: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Trouble-configuring-R-to-use-ACML-tt2337193.html#a2337193 I have verified that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set... I set it in /etc/bash.bashrc (is that ok?) and it shows up when I echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH I also tried adding the paths to the ld.so cache as Prof Ripley had suggested. I get the same results when running

So, tried again from scratch. Again, CentOS 5.3, which is essentially RHEL 5.3. ./configure --with-blas="-L/opt/acml4.3.0/gfortran64/lib -lacml" In config.log, get things like configure:37199: checking for dgemm_ in -L/opt/acml4.3.0/gfortran64/lib -lacml configure:37230: gcc -std=gnu99 -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib64 conftest.c

Well, CentOS 5.3, which amounts to the same thing. I recently decided to upgrade my main research machine from Fedora Core 8 -> CentOS 5.3. Basically, I was looking to move to a distro with longer 'term-of-life' than the release schedule for Fedora currently allows. The machine is a multi-Opteron box, so both 32- and 64-bit apps natively supported. Since I do a lot of 'linear

food now? or after work in the library?

Greetings - I'm trying to compile R under GNU/Linux (RHEL 4) on a multi-Opteron box, with ACML support. First, I downloaded and installed ACML 3.5 - GNU version, although I'm not entirely sure what the differences are - from the AMD website. The ACML libraries were installed to /opt/acml3.5.0/ Second, I ran ./configure --with-blas='-lacml' The configure went fine,

I'm trying to build R-devel with AMD's ACML. I downloaded version 3.0.0 64bit for gfortran (acml-3-0-0-gfortran-64bit.tgz) and copied the libraries to /usr/local/lib. When I configure R to build against the ACML library, how do I know if the library has been detected and will be used? I run 'configure' with the '--with-blas=-lacml' flag and am using gcc 4.0.2 (with

I am encountering segfaults when checking the lme4 package on an Athlon64 system if I use the acml blas. R was built as a 64-bit application using the GCC 4.0.3 compiler suite including gfortran. The version of acml is 3.5.0 gfortran64. I do not encounter the segfaults when I compile R with R's built-in BLAS. The errors occur in the first example in lme4 in a call to lmer. It looks like

Greetings - For a host of reasons I chose (was forced) to upgrade my multi-Opteron box from Fedora 7 -> Fedora 8. In the process, I also updated the ACML I had installed from 4.0.0 to 4.1.0. While I get no errors (that I can find) in the config -> make -> make install sequence, I'm pretty sure (based on some benchmarks) that I'm not getting BLAS and/or Lapack to compile in. So,

dear experts I'd like to ask you, probably on behalf all of us who try to use AMD's ACML for performance optimisation a question. There seem to be problem when these two, R and ACML are coupled, described here: http://devgurus.amd.com/message/1255852#1255852 I'd like to ask, while not being a programmer/developer, how incorrect and dangerous this might be? maybe such a setup must

Hi, Has anyone had any luck in using portland group compiler to build R(-devel) with AMD's pgi compiled ACML library? I've downloaded the packages and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and run configuration script as follow: % ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/R.pgcc --with-blas='-lacml' However, it failed to pick up double complex BLAS, checking for sgemm_ in -lacml... yes checking

Normally, I do the following to configure R for compilation on my Opteron box with ACML installed: ./configure --with-tcltk --with-blas="-L/opt/acml4.3.0/gfortran64/lib -lacml" However, when I do so, and look at Makeconf, I see BLAS_LIBS = -lblas I thought I would see BLAS_LIBS = -L/opt/acml4.3.0/gfortran64/lib -lacml Why isn't Makeconf picking up the right BLAS_LIBS (or is

Greetings, I have a computer with the following setup: 1)cblfs (pure 64-bit (amd64) linux), kernel2.6.34 gcc4.4.2 2)R-2.11.1 I compiled R with BLAS and lapack using the switched ( --with-blas="- lpthread -latlas -lfptf77blas" --with-lapack="-llapack -lcblas" ). (( http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#Linear-algebra) ) Prior to compiling R-2.11.1 sh

Hello. I am a Linux neophyte and know almost nothing ?about compiling, so I would appreciate any help and advice y'all would care to offer. I am trying to compile the 64 bit version of R using a tuned ATLAS and LAPACK (ATLAS 3.9.24). I am running Ubunto 10.04 LTS (through wubi, FWIW). The ATLAS and LAPACK files (atlas.so, f77blas.so, lapack.so, and cblas.so) are sitting in the folder

While I recently received some very helpful files and email from Kevin Hendricks for compiling with ATLAS, thought I'd first have a stab at ACML. Having problems, which I suspect are trivial to solve: 1. machine is running RHEL 4, meaning, it uses gcc 3.4.5 out of the box, and g77. In my experience, over-riding RHEL's choice, and manually upgrading to gcc 4.x.x (and, as a consequence

For grins, tried rebuilding R 2.9.0 without using ACML 4.3.0. Config goes fine, make runs without any errors. make check - and - ta-dah! - no errors for stats. Everything seems to check out just fine. So, it seems as if R 2.9.0, ACML 4.3.0, and perhaps one/more things under CentOS don't play nice. Will trying unloading 4.3.0, installing 4.2.0 (which worked before on the Fedora box), and

Have been running 2.5.1 on my multi-pro Opteron box running Fedora Core 5 with no problems. Had compiled previously with no problems. However, for a variety of reasons (mostly due to ACML upgrade), I tried a recompile using the following sequence of commands (note I'm compiling in ACML support for blas): LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/acml3.6.1/gfortran64/lib export LD_LIBRARY_PATH ./configure

Greetings - A quick perusal of some of the posts to this maillist suggest the level of the questions is probably beyond someone working at my level, but at the risk of looking foolish publicly (something I find I get increasingly comfortable with as I get older), here goes: My research group recently purchased a multi-Opteron system (bunch of 880 chips), running 64-bit RHEL 4 (which we have

Hi, I'm having problems using ACML with R. I made two changes in config.site by setting LDFLAGS="-L/opt/acml3.1.0/gnu64/lib" BLAS_LIBS="-lacml" ./config and make go through but when I try to use the lm() function, I get the error message Error in chol2inv(Qr$qr[p1, p1, drop = FALSE]) : lapack routines cannot be loaded In addition: Warning message: unable to load

Hi Tomas, Thanks for your reply. I find your response curious, however. Surely the identical() test is simply incorrect when catering for possibly different BLAS implementations? Or is it the case that conformant BLAS implementations all produce bit-identical results, which seems unlikely? (Sorry, I am unfamiliar with the BLAS spec.) Although whatever the answer to this theoretical question,

I have problems building R 2.11.1 with an external BLAS. I've tried several with several libraries: # ACML: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/site/VERSIONS/acml-3.6.0/gfortran64_int64/lib BLAS=--with-blas="-L/site/VERSIONS/acml-3.6.0/gfortran64_int64/lib -lacml" LAPACK=--with-lapack # MKL 11: BLAS=--with-blas="-L/site/VERSIONS/intel-11.1/mkl/lib/em64t -lmkl_gf_lp64 -lmkl_sequential
