I have non-sudo access to a machine with NVIDIA GPUs and CUDA 7.5 installed. I installed PyTorch with CUDA 7.5 support, which seems to have worked:
>>> import torch
>>> torch.cuda.is_available()
True

To get some practice, I followed tutorial for machine translation using RNNs 7. When I set USE_CUDA = False and the CPUs are used, everything works quite alright. However, when want to utilize the GPUs with USE_CUDA = True I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I’ve tried to use Google to search for that error but got no meaningful results. Since I’m rather a newbie with PyTorch and CUDA, I have no idea how to go on from here. The full setup is Ubuntu 14.04, Python 2.7, CUDA 7.5.
