    Installed the Kali NVIDIA Driver but pyrit doesn't list my GPU

    New install of Kali rolling and I followed the the kali documentation on installing the nvidia drivers. Everything is up and running but when I do a pyrit list_cores all I get is 8 cores, no listing on my GPU.

    I have a ASUS Laptop running i7 and Nvidia GeForce GTX460M CUDA with 1 GB RAM


    apt-get update
    apt-get dist-upgrade
    apt-get install -y linux-headers-$(uname -r) **However I did have to get this working before I could continue as it wouldn't find any header files.
    apt-get install nvidia-kernel-dkms


    No problems with this step either

    sed 's/quiet/quiet nouveau.modeset=0/g' -i /etc/default/grub
    update-grub
    reboot

    I get this output

    root@kali:~# glxinfo | grep -i "direct rendering"
    direct rendering: Yes


    Then I checked to see if pyrit could see my GPU like other posts show

    root@kali:~# pyrit benchmark

    Pyrit 0.4.0 (C) 2008-2011 Lukas Lueg http://pyrit.googlecode.com

    Running benchmark (2989.9 PMKs/s)... |

    Computed 2989.92 PMKs/s total.

    #3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 385.1 PMKs/s (RTT 3.2)

    #6: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 386.3 PMKs/s (RTT 3.1)
    #7: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 386.0 PMKs/s (RTT 3.2)
    #8: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)': 386.0 PMKs/s (RTT 3.1)


    if this the correct output? Or should I be seeing my GPU listed?
    I was thinking my GPU should be putting out much better PMK's than whats listed so I'm just wondering if I did something incorrect. I read a few posts about installing the proprietary NVIDIA driver and even downloaded it but I wanted a second opinion before I did.

    Thank you

    After 3 days I got the Geforce GTX 460 Cuda drivers loaded. I don't know what I was doing wrong but I could not get the debain nvidia drivers to unload. I obviously tried everything but the correct way. So if you can get the old drivers uninstalled then your half way there.

    Laptop ASUS Model G73S


    NEW Install of Kali 2016.1

    apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade

    while that was being installed I downloaded the drivers for my card. Mine was "NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-361.28.run"

    reboot

    apt-get install -y linux-headers-$(uname -r)

    reboot

    sed 's/quiet/quiet/ nouveau.modeset=0/g' -i /etc/default/grub
    update-grub
    reboot

    if gnu loads or doesn't load I ctrl +alt+f1
    logged in as root

    init 3

    relogged in

    checked run level with "runlevel"

    went to my driver location and chmod +u ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-361.28.run

    then I typed

    ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-361.28.run

    this is the first time it actually got past 56% and finished the install.

    rebooted, crossed fingers, held my head to the left with my tongue held to the roof of my mouth.

    it loaded then I tried to test it

    pyrit still didn't show CPU 1 as a GPU so I got cudahashcat


    went to http://hashcat.net/oclhashcat/ and downloaded oclHashcat binaries for NVidia

    i then entered 7z x cudaHashcat-2.01.7z

    went to http://www.miraclesalad.com/webtools/sha1.php and got a hash to test.

    once done i used this to test my card, which by the way worked but hit my overheat warning so thats another issue I have to figure out.

    ./cudaHashcat64.bin -m 100 -a 3 -n 32 --custom-charset1=?l?d /root/cudaHashcat-2.01/sh1testhash.txt -o /root/cudaHashcat-2.01/output.txt

    seems to be working, just need to figure out my overheat problem.

    I've searched and can not find an answer to my problem. Am I asking the wrong questions or asking the question incorrectly? I still show no GPU in pyrit so is this something for my laptop? or common now? Anyone?

    First you need to download, install, and compile Cuda-Pyrit. Then you can see the GPU with "pyrit list_cores"
