Hello! 
I’m happy running Taichi on my Mac’s CPU (works great! thank you!). I’d like to move to cuda, using the cluster of my institute, but right now it’s not working.
- I installed taichi-nightly-cuda-10-1
- cuda 10.1 is present:
$ nvcc -V
nvcc: NVIDIA (R) Cuda compiler driver
Copyright (c) 2005-2019 NVIDIA Corporation
Built on Sun_Jul_28_19:07:16_PDT_2019
Cuda compilation tools, release 10.1, V10.1.243
- gcc 8.3.1 is present:
$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 8.3.1 20190311 (Red Hat 8.3.1-3)
- python is 3.6.8
$ python --version
Python 3.6.8
- centos 7
$ cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS Linux release 7.7.1908 (Core)
In the cluster, however, I can’t have a display, all has to be headless. So I commented out everything including ‘GUI’ in demo_2d.py, which now looks like this:
import taichi as ti
import numpy as np
from mpm_solver import MPMSolver
write_to_disk = True
ti.init(arch=ti.cuda) # Try to run on GPU
mpm = MPMSolver(res=(128, 128))
for i in range(3):
mpm.add_cube(lower_corner=[0.2 + i * 0.1, 0.3 + i * 0.1], cube_size=[0.1, 0.1], material=MPMSolver.material_elastic)
for frame in range(500):
mpm.step(8e-3)
if 10 < frame < 100 and frame % 2 == 0:
mpm.add_cube(lower_corner=[0.4, 0.7], cube_size=[0.2, 0.01], material=MPMSolver.material_water)
if 120 < frame < 300 and frame % 40 == 0:
mpm.add_cube(lower_corner=[0.4 + frame * 0.001, 0.6 + frame // 40 * 0.02], cube_size=[0.2, 0.1], material=MPMSolver.material_snow)
np_x, np_v, np_material = mpm.particle_info()
It fails with the following error:
python demo_2d.py
[Taichi] mode=release
/bin/sh: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8)

Any ideas? 
Thank you in advance!
