You don't need to install ubuntu you can as well compile with any other linux distro or windows. What os are you using?
win 8.1 x64
What Linux distro (I am assuming you mean Linux) do you need? Builds with CUDA 7.5?
I know a bit how to compile in ubuntu,I had at the time to compile ccminer and yet another miner.but it is a little difficult for me,because i use win and never use ubuntu.and because i have to analyze errors that occur during compilation.but still it seems to me that compile in ubuntu is easier than in windows.
that's why I asked.need for gtx750.
