I've tried to compile it under Ubuntu 64bit, but have run into issues with it. I would greatly appreciate it if you could give me some info about compiling for CUDA or a link to such information.
Are you planning on using an IDE? If so, what is it? I prefer Netbeans and have it set up and running on Fedora 13 64bit. It's a bit of a pain to get setup, but works quite well once you do have it done.
After a quick search this pops up and looks very promising for you:

I ran out of time this weekend to get any work done and fried my PSU last week due to overusage. New 850W will get to me tomorrow night.
Thanks for the link! I'll be sure to try and follow as soon as I have a moment. The only thing is I don't have any linux with a cuda enabled gpu, but I can still try and build things up so others can test.
I don't use IDEs at all, I try very hard to avoid them. It pays in the long run to know and understand your tools.
As for helping in compiling, I've taken a very shortcut approach in my system, just copying the calls from the nvidia SDK template. There's a variable (is it debug or verbose?) that you set to 1 in your makefile and you'll get the calls it makes to compile printed out, so I just copied the switches over to the bitcoin makefile. That is one place I really need to improve, but didn't have time to. I don't even check if the gpu is cuda capable, for crying out load
