I am having a really hard time getting OpenCL working in Trusty or Mint 17. Im using ppa:xorg-edgers, tried updates and even nvidia-340.

sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 nvidia-331-uvm nvidia-cuda-toolkit nvidia-cuda-dev opencl-headers nvidia-opencl-dev clinfo

Rebooting and then

babak@ASUS-G750JH:~$ clinfo
clinfo: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libOpenCL.so.1: no version information available (required by clinfo)
I: ICD loader reports no usable platforms

I have tried this on two Intel based systems with Nvidia GPU's a desktop with a GeForce 280, and a laptop with GeForce 780M with a physically disabled Optimus by the Asus, it only has the Nvidia GPU. A G750JH.

Has anyone done this successfully? Can I roll back and remove the PPA and use the default repo's, would that even make a difference?
