I suppose the epel kmod-nvidia might count - it will allow CUDA apps to run but you can't develop with it. > I did try, last week, and went through one > failure after another.

Sorry if you already know this, but you can get it from https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads?target_os=Linux&target_arch=x86_64&target_distro=CentOS&target_version=7&target_type=rpmnetwork sorry for the long URL - if you want go to https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads and click through the selections. Ultimately you just do a 'yum install cuda' and it installs everything you need for a CUDA development environment including the kernel drivers - and it's kept up to date. Documentation on it is at http://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html#package-manager-installation P.
