Does OS X Mountain Lion not include MPI (Message Passing Interface)?

Hi,
Does OS X Mountain Lion not include MPI (Message Passing Interface) as Lion did? I need that to compile CUDA 5.0 examples.
I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8 without any updates yet.

I take this statment from the link I posted
Note: Unlike most UNIX-based operating systems, OS X does not use a preallocated disk partition for the backing store. Instead, it uses all of the available space on the machine’s boot partition.
to basically mean it's limited only by the disk space.
There is also this:
Both OS X and iOS include a fully-integrated virtual memory system that you cannot turn off; it is always on. Both systems also provide up to 4 gigabytes of addressable space per 32-bit process. In addition, OS X provides approximately 18 exabytes of addressable space for 64-bit processes. Even for computers that have 4 or more gigabytes of RAM available, the system rarely dedicates this much RAM to a single process.
To give processes access to their entire 4 gigabyte or 18 exabyte address space, OS X uses the hard disk to hold data that is not currently in use. As memory gets full, sections of memory that are not being used are written to disk to make room for data that is needed now. The portion of the disk that stores the unused data is known as the backing store because it provides the backup storage for main memory.

  • Mountain lion not dowloading- Error message

    Hi,
    I've been trying to upgrade my OS X from Snow Leapord to Mountain Lion from past few days. Whenver ML gets downloads upto 4.33 gb or near it, i get a message that says download can not be continued due to an error.  It has happened twice so far. Can anyone help me out with this problem
    Regards?

    No it is definitely not the internet connection. IDK what is happening. Whenever I reach near the complete file size it gives an error. Just now i found some articles , which says that i should delete -
    com.apple.appstore in /var/folders/
    Also I am not sure if apple stores here (In India) allows you to come with a pocket drive to get it installed. Have to check that out.

  • Does OS X Mountain Lion include ilife?

    does OS X Mountain Lion include ilife?

    No iLife is separate and comes installed on every mac. You should have a Applications DVD with iLife if your comp came with Snow Leopard or older. If it came with Lion or Mountain Lion then they will be available for download from the App Store in your purchases tab.

  • Have lion on 5 year old 20" mac desktop. tried to download and received a message mountain lion not compatible with this computer. anyone else have this problem?

    have lion 10.7.4 up graded from tiger 10.5.8. tried to download mountain lion but received a message that mountain lion is not compatible with my computer. anyone have this problem or suggestion?

    It's actually not the chip... it's the drivers for the video card. this is what my friend who does IT work said.
    "The drivers for your Mac's video card are not 64bit compatible even though the computer itself is. Mountain Lion has done away with all 32bit OS components so it only runs on full 64bit MAcs now"
    So even though I updated my video card to a newer version and my computer itself is 64bit... apple didn't create a driver for it that was 64 bit. My hardware is fine for this update and the chip can handle it. It can handle all my 64 bit programs just fine. It's apple forcing me to update and buy a new expensive computer. So much for long lasting computer... they last long but they won't be supported very long.
    Why not release a version of mountain lion that supports 32 bit graphics alongside the 64 bit? Wasn't that what grand central was going to accomplish? This is rubbish.

  • Why is Mountain Lion not available for Mac Pro 2007???

    Why is Mountain Lion not available for Macpro 2007 eventhough this computer is not having old generation hardware like of 15years ago's computers!! I am surprised to know about that. when this mac pro have 2 xeon processor, 8GB ram, OS 10.7.5 (Lion) etc etc. so why is this not compatible for mountain lion???
    Very Sad for us - the buyer of so costly Macpro ....
    so does the Apple want to say we should buy or upgrade our purchased costly apple products every 5 years ??!!

    This is a user forum. We are all users like yourself. Conjecture about Apple's products is not appropriate discussion in these forums.

  • Mountain Lion Notes App missing (IT installed Lotus Notes over the top)

    My IT department installed Lotus Notes and it installed over the top of the Mountain Lion Notes application and thus deleted it. I renamed the Lotus Notes application (originally just called Notes). How do I get the original OSX notes application back?

    Ok, found the solution, download mountain lion from the app store once more, then use Pacifist to extract the notes appllication again.

    I have just installed Mountain Lion and received a message "speech synthesis server.app could not be opened because it is damaged or incomplete", please can you advise me what to do next? Thanks

    Something went wrong with your upgrade.
    Back up all data, then reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it.

  • How long does it take mountain lion to download?

    How long does it take mountain lion to download?

    Forever! Wait about half an hour, if there's no progress in the download bar, you can restart to jostle it. It should pick up the DL from where it left off.

  • Updated to Mountain Lion, not I only receive emails sporadically. Thoughts?

    Updated to Mountain Lion, not I only receive emails sporadically. Thoughts?

    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • How does one silence mountain lion startup sound?

    How does one silence mountain lion startup sound?              

    After asking this question many times and always getting the ususal fixes (that don't work in Mountain Lion) Psst, Startninja, turn down the sound when you shut down, yada yada yada. And the "why don't you just put it to sleep" comments :/  duh..  Sometime we want to shut it down!! Even Apple support has no idea how to do it. Here's is the fix and it is so simple it hurts.
    Controlling the volume of the startup chime is easy to set in the System Preferences Sound panel, but you need to make two different settings if you have external speakers connected to your Mac. There is no need to use scripts or any other coding to make this adjustment.
    There are both internal and external speaker output settings in the sound preference pane. In order to adjust (or turn off) the volume of your Mac's internal speakers, nothing must be plugged into the headphone jack. Keep in mind that this setting completely controls the volume of your internal Mac speakers, so if you mute the sound, and have no external speakers, you will get no sound at all from your Mac.
    To adjust the volume on your Mac's internal speakers:
    Unplug speakers or headphones from the headphone jack.
    Go to System Prefs > Sound, then click on the Output tab.
    You will then see Internal Speakers (Type built-in) highlighted in the window.
    Adjust the output volume (which also controls the chime volume) in the slider at the bottom of the window. Remember if you mute it there will be no internal speaker sound.
    To set the volume for your external speakers:
    Plug in speakers or headphones to the headphone jack.
    Go to System Prefs > Sound >, then click on the Output tab.
    You will then see Headphones (Type built-in) highlighted in the window.
    Adjust the output volume (which controls the chime volume in the external speakers) with the slider at the bottom of the window. Remember if you mute it there will be no external speaker sound.
