What have you already tried?
Also, are you running Live, persistent, or installed?

Have you tried the Cuda toolkit from https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads (Any of the ubuntu RUN files).

32-bit? 64-bit? which cuda driver? which nvidia driver? ...... Excellent problem description, shaberu!

My way I got NVIDIA and CUDA working with a fresh install of Kali 1.0.6: (GeForce GTX 780 SC w/ ACX Cooler)
followed this guide:

do the editing of /etc/default/grub but DON'T reboot

then have a look for your packages with nouveau*

dpkg -l | grep -i nouveau

uninstall every single package with name nouveau

then reboot

download CUDA - doesn't matter which one exept 32-bit or 64-bit - pick one RUN file from UBUNTU!!!!


in summary:
1) installed nvidia driver 319.82 from nvidia’s website
reboot
2) Ctrl + ALT + F1
3) service gdm3 stop
4) ./cuda_5.5.22_linux_64.run -silent -driver // this was for me important, otherwise CUDA wasn't installed
6) reboot
5) installed cpyrit and pyrit
6) have fun

also a good HOWTO:

Please give feedback if it's working or not.
