MatrixWarrior
The Battle Over Matrix Size
Powered by FMSlib
This section contains instructions on how to download, install and run MatrixWarrior and supporting software.1. Download MatrixWarrior
The product that is right for you depends on the following items:- Operating system (64-bit Linux, 64-bit Windows),
- For Linux, the version of the C library, GLIBC.
GLIBC is upward compatible. The product you sellect should be equal or less than the version of GLIBC that is installed in your operating system.
To determine the version of GLIBC in your operating system, you can use
ldd --version
- The Nvidia CUDA version.
- Add http://www.fmslib.com as a trusted site.
Navigate to Internet Options/Security/Trusted sites/Sites
Uncheck the box "Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone"
Enter http://www.fmslib.com in the upper box and then click Add - Enable downloads
Navigate to Internet Options/Security/Internet/Custom level
Scroll down to "Downloads" and click Enable - Verify program version. Check the CPUs.html page for a description of your processor and see if it matches the version you downloaded.
- Check shared libraries:
- Linux
ldd MatrixWarrior - Windows
Download Dependency Walker and look for missing dll files.
- Linux
Starting with version 12.1, the driver and runtime are interchangable. Any 12. driver will work with any 12. version of the CUDA librry.

Legasy Nvidia Drivers
If you are runnuing a Nvidia driver version 12.1 or erlier, the MatrixWarrior version you download must be less than or equal to the version of your installed driver.
You can determine your GPU configuration and the installed driver version with
nvidia-smi
It is recommended that you update your driver to the latest version and run the latest version of this software.
A single version of MatrixWarrior runs on systems with or without GPUs. At startup, MatrixWarrior examines your system for hardware and software. GPUs are automatically used if all required resources are available (plug-and-play).

NOTE: If you are using Windows to download and encounter any security messages, you may need to do one of the following:
2. Install MatrixWarrior
If you are updating a previously installed version of MatrixWarrior, you should delete the old license file mwlic.txt. MatrixWarrior will automatically generate a new one appropriate for this release.
Linux
gunzip MatrixWarrior_Linux_CUDA91.tar.gz
tar -xvf MatrixWarrior_Linux_CUDA91.tar
Windows
If you saved the files during the download, double-click on the product.It will self-extract to C:\FMS\MatrixWarrior. You will be given the option of changing this directory during the installation.
3. Install GPU software
If you are not using GPUs, skip to Step 4.Obtaining NVIDIA Software
You may obtain the latest NVIDIA drivers from their website at:http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx
This link also includes instructions for installing the NVIDIA software.The NVIDIA software consists of two components:
A Device Driver
This provides the low-level interface to the hardware. Its function is similar to other device drivers (printers, etc.) You may determine which driver is installed on your system by running the command
nvidia-smi -a
.
If the program nvidia-smi is not in your PATH, you may need to include the PATH in the above command:
(Linux) /usr/bin/nvidia-smi -a
(Windows) "C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI\nvidia-smi.exe -a"
| Operating System | Default Install Directory | Files Used |
|---|---|---|
| 64-bit Linux | /usr/lib64 | libnvidia-ml.so |
| 64-bit Windows | C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI | NVML.DLL |
| 32-bit Windows | N/A | N/A |
Compute Unified Device Arcitecture (CUDA) libraries (CUDA Toolkit)
The CUDA Toolkit provides utilities for software development. All components from this toolkit required by MatrixWarrior are included with this distribution.On Linux systems, the necessary components are already linked into MatrixWarrior.
On Windows systems, the CUBLAS library is provided as a separate file with the distribution. If GPUs are detected, this file is automatically loaded dynamically at runtime.
4. Run MatrixWarrior
Start the program
Go to the install directory and run (double-click) on MatrixWarrior.If the program fails to start:
