Installing cuda toolkit Ubuntu 14.04 causes dpkg error
When I was installing cuda toolkit Ubuntu 14.04 causes dpkg error.
This is what I did:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo dpkg -i cuda-repo-ubuntu1404-7-0-local_7.0-28_amd64.deb
However I get this error from dpkg:
dpkg-deb: error: cuda-repo-ubuntu1404-7-0-local_7.0-28_amd64.deb is not a debian format archive
dpkg: error processing archive cuda-repo-ubuntu1404-7-0-local_7.0-28_amd64.deb (--install):

dpkg-split: error: error reading .: Is a directory
dpkg: error processing archive . (--install):

Errors were encountered while processing:

apt nvidia package-management dpkg cuda

Maybe it's a problem with the name. Can you try with these steps 1)cp cuda-repo-ubuntu1404-7-0-local_7.0-28_amd64.deb cuda_repo_ubuntu1404_7_0_local_7.0_28_amd64.deb2)sudo dpkg -i cuda_repo_ubuntu1404_7_0_local_7.0_28_amd64.deb

Make sure that you're in the same directory as the .deb file and that you're using the right file name for the dpkg command.
