Hi, I compiled OpenCV 2.4.9 with cmake and WITH_CUDA=ON and I get the following error on my Late 2009 Mac Book Pro (GPU 9400M) with Snow Leopard. gpu-z does not find my cuda gpu... but OpenCV does! OpenCV finds the GPU 9400m but does not run my test code... but I found posts with people that made this work! What am I doing wrong? I have been trying to solve this problem for days now. Any help would be much appreciated!

On which iteration of the for loop you're getting the error? Is it possible that you have a memory leak?

Kirill, Thanks for your reply. Sorry for my late answer, I could not work on this project for a while.

The loop exits on the first iteration when it tries to load the mat to the gpu.

Cuda 5.0.36 and Cudadriver 5.0.45 are now working on my late 2009 Mac Book Pro after I installed Mountain Lion 10.8.3. All Cuda 1.1. Nvidia SDK demos are working.
