In this guide, I volition demonstrate how to install NVIDIA driver marrow Module CUDA, supervene upon stock Pyrit, as well as install Cpyrit. The primary work amongst novel Kali Linux 1.0.7 running Kernel 3.14 was that it broke Pyrit as well as cudaHashcat. When you lot attempt to run pyrit command, you lot teach this fault ERROR: could non insert ‘nvidia_uvm’: Invalid argument. I volition demonstrate how to install all the necessary drivers, modules as well as also ready this error. At the destination of this guide, you lot volition last able to purpose GPU acceleration for enabled applications such every bit cudaHashcat, Pyrit, squelch etc.
This guide replaces the sometime guides
- How to Install NVIDIA Kernel Module CUDA as well as Pyrit inwards Kali Linux
- Install proprietary NVIDIA driver on Kali Linux – NVIDIA Accelerated Linux Graphics Driver
This is business office 2 of installing NVIDIA driver marrow Module CUDA as well as Pyrit on Kali Linux Driver serial which was divided into 2 parts:
- Kali Linux 1.0.7 marrow 3.14 – Install proprietary NVIDIA driver – NVIDIA Accelerated Linux Graphics Driver
- Kali Linux 1.0.7 marrow 3.14 install NVIDIA driver marrow Module CUDA as well as Pyrit – CUDA, Pyrit as well as Cpyrit-cuda
You purpose the outset guide to install NVIDIA Driver on Kali Linux. I would assume you lot followed the outset guide as well as completed all steps at that topographic point as well as would similar to enable GPU acceleration, (cudahashcat, GPU move yesteryear through etc.) on your Kali Linux.
CUDA Toolkit
The NVIDIA® CUDA® Toolkit provides a comprehensive evolution environs for C as well as C++ developers edifice GPU-accelerated applications. The CUDA Toolkit includes a compiler for NVIDIA GPUs, math libraries, as well as tools for debugging as well as optimizing the functioning of your applications. You’ll also detect programming guides, user manuals, API reference, as well as other documentation to assistance you lot teach started rapidly accelerating your application amongst GPUs. You tin read a lot to a greater extent than hither inwards NVIDIA Developers official webpage:
Prerequisites
Following are the prerequisite earlier you lot start next this guide:
NOTE: This guide does non apply to VMWare, VirtualBox users. GPU Acceleration doesn’t operate on Virtual environment.
Prerequisite 1: add together Official Kali Linux repository.
I’ve added the right Kali Official repositories as well as issued the next commands to update, upgrade as well as dist-upgrade my Kali Linux.
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade -y
Prerequisite 2: Install proprietary NVIDIA driver on Kali Linux
I’ve installed the right official proprietary NVIDIA driver on Kali Linux – NVIDIA Accelerated Linux Graphics Driver using the previous guide:
If you’ve completed both, displace to side yesteryear side instruction.
Step 1: Install NVIDIA CUDA toolkit as well as openCL
At outset nosotros bespeak to install NVIDIA CUDA toolkit as well as NVIDIA openCL
aptitude install nvidia-cuda-toolkit nvidia-opencl-icd
This volition install CUDA packages inwards your Kali Linux. The total packet is pretty large including dependencies, (282MB something), you lot last patient as well as allow it finish.
Step 2: Download Pyrit as well as Cpyrit
Download Pyrit as well as Cpyrit from the official website:
Save them inwards your /root folder. Alternatively you lot tin but run the wget commands I’ve used below:
wget https://pyrit.googlecode.com/files/pyrit-0.4.0.tar.gz
wget https://pyrit.googlecode.com/files/cpyrit-cuda-0.4.0.tar.gz
Step 3: Install Pyrit
Follow the instructions below to install Pyrit as well as it’s prerequisites.
Step 3.a: Install Pyrit prerequisites
apt-get install python2.7-dev python2.7-libpcap libpcap-dev
Step 3.b: Remove existing installation of Pyrit
Remove stock Pyrit using the next command:
apt-get take pyrit
We used to teach a message stating that it volition also take kali-linux-full package. Seems on Kali Linux 1.0.7 it’s fixed.
If you lot are non using a create clean install of Kali (not recommended), you lot may bespeak to resultant the next command:
rm -r /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/cpyrit/
Step 3.c: Install novel Pyrit
Copy glue the next commands to extract downloaded Pyrit inwards your Kali Linux /root directory
tar -xzf pyrit-0.4.0.tar.gz
cd pyrit-0.4.0
Now construct the package
python setup.py build
Once construct is complete, you lot tin install Pyrit.
python setup.py install
Up to this point, you lot shouldn’t have whatever errors.
Step 4: Install CPyrit-cuda
Copy glue the next commands to extract downloaded CPyrit-cuda inwards your Kali Linux /root directory
tar -xzf cpyrit-cuda-0.4.0.tar.gz
cd cpyrit-cuda-0.4.0
Now construct the package
python setup.py build
Once construct is complete, you lot tin install CPyrit-cuda.
python setup.py install
Again, you lot shouldn’t have whatever errors, if there’s error, become dorsum as well as review each steps.
Step 5: Fixing ERROR: could non insert ‘nvidia_uvm’: Invalid argument
Now that we’ve installed NVIDIA driver marrow Module CUDA as well as Pyrit on Kali Linux, nosotros should last able to attempt out it. The best mode to attempt out is yesteryear issuing the next command:
pyrit list_cores
This gave me an error ERROR: could non insert ‘nvidia_uvm’: Invalid argument
root@kali: # pyrit list_cores
ERROR: could non insert ‘nvidia_uvm’: Invalid argument

The next cores appear available…
#1: ‘CPU-Core (SSE2)’
#2: ‘CPU-Core (SSE2)’
#3: ‘CPU-Core (SSE2)’
#4: ‘CPU-Core (SSE2)’
Thankfully, reader Shinri provided us amongst a fix. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 BIG thank you lot to Shinri who spent fourth dimension as well as endeavour to detect the ready as well as was sort plenty to post it dorsum on my website.
Thanks Shinri.
Step 5.a Recompile NVIDIA Driver
First of all you lot bespeak to recompile NVIDIA driver. Just follow the steps below:
cd /usr/src/nvidia-current-331.67
make
What you’re doing hither is going to source directory for NVIDIA electrical flow driver as well as recompiling it. By recompiling, you lot ensure it’s aligned for your hardware.
Step 5.b: Copy Module.symvers to UVM as well as recompile UVM
Now re-create the compiled Module.symvers file to UVM folder as well as recompile UVM.
cp Module.symvers uvm/
make -C uvm
Step 5.c: Copy nvidia-uvm.ko to right DKMS folder
We’re straightaway really close. Just re-create the compiled nvidia-uvm.ko to right DKMS folder.Use the next command:
cp uvm/nvidia-uvm.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates/dkms
Those who are interested tin read through this actually long Debian põrnikas study as well as envy the difficult operate done to detect this solution.
Debian Bug study logs – #746643
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=746643
Step six – Test Pyrit – It works!
Once you’ve followed Shinri’s solution, recompiled NVIDIA driver, UVM as well as copied it to right DKMS folder, pyrit volition but work.
root@kali: # pyrit list_cores
Pyrit 0.4.0 (C) 2008-2011 Lukas Lueg http://pyrit.googlecode.com
This code is distributed nether the GNU General Public License v3+
The next cores appear available...
#1: 'CUDA-Device #1 'GeForce 210''
#2: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)'
#3: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)'
#4: 'CPU-Core (SSE2)'
Step seven – Install oclHashcat (cudaHashcat)
The argue you’ve done all the difficult operate thus that you lot tin purpose cudaHashcat. I flora that Kali 1.0.7 Kernel 3.14 doesn’t install that yesteryear default (maybe that was the instance inwards every version). Doesn’t matter, nosotros tin but install it quickly.
Use the next ascendence to install OCLhashcat (which contains cudaHashcat too)
apt-get install oclhashcat oclhashcat-plus
Step 8 – Missing cudahashcat inwards Kali 1.0.9 work as well as fix
staticn0de provided a .deb file that you lot tin install manually which installs cudahashcat for you. Link to Original Post below:
I’ve solely copy-pasted his instructions below, all credit goes to staticn0de, give thank you lot you.
root@kali: # dpkg -i cudaHashcat-1.30.deb
Selecting previously unselected packet cudahashcat-1.30.
(Reading database ... 349321 files as well as directories currently installed.)
Unpacking cudahashcat-1.30 (from cudaHashcat-1.30.deb) ...
Setting upward cudahashcat-1.30 (1.30) ...
root@kali: # optirun cudahashcat64 -t 32 -a seven example0.hash ?a?a?a?a example.dict
cudaHashcat v1.30 starting...
I guide keep taken the archive from the hashcat site as well as modified it nether department six of their EULA. The deb installs the programme is /usr/share/cudahashcat as well as places scripts inwards /usr/bin which calls hashcat similar whatever other command.
I’ll upload it this evening for anyone that wants to purpose it. Provided every bit is amongst no expectation it volition operate as well as it may displace damages including perish as well as your married adult woman leaving you lot (tic) but you lot teach the idea.

Hey guys,
I had no thought blackmoreops had used my deb! must say, I’m pretty chuffed! I’ve ever been a fan of his guides.
I’ve made a novel deb based on the 1.31 cudahashcat. You tin detect it below inwards my thread on the kali forums. The guide was written for users amongst optimus laptops. Those of you lot who don’t guide keep optimus, omit the ‘optirun’ prefix of the ascendence to attempt out it.
Thanks i time to a greater extent than staticn0de.

SHA1SUM f2c0d96c75d1c186b48e11c5b399f3e2ccc5e459
when installed, its called amongst ‘cudahashcat64‘ for 64bit or ‘cudahashcat32‘ for 32 bit.
This was the nigh annoying download link … the amount of spams as well as popups as well as redirection was appalling.
Note that this is custom package, built yesteryear somebody else than Kali Dev squad as well as you lot should purpose it at your ain risk.
Then again, amongst recent openSSL as well as Bash blunder, yeah.. purpose EVERYTHING inwards Linux at your ain risk.
Once all done, run a cudahashcat benchmark
Bug study for missing cudahashcat inwards Kali 1.0.9
In the meantime, I’ve taken the freedom of reporting this missing cudahashcat every bit a Bug report.
https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=1756
Hopefully, it volition last fixed inwards side yesteryear side liberate (i.e. Kali v1.0.10).
Conclusion
Pyrit allows to create massive databases, pre-computing business office of the IEEE 802.11 WPA/WPA2-PSK authentication stage inwards a space-time-tradeoff. Exploiting the computational ability of Many-Core- as well as other platforms through ATI-Stream, Nvidia CUDA as well as OpenCL, it is currently yesteryear far the nigh powerful assault against i of the world’s nigh used security-protocols.
If you’re reading this post as well as this helped, PLEASE seat a comment “Thanks Shinri” inwards the comment section. That’s the to the lowest degree nosotros tin do.I estimate a large thank you lot goes to staticn0de every bit well, experience gratuitous to post “Thanks staticn0de” if everything industrial plant for you.
Comment’s doesn’t require whatever signin/registration … thus assistance yourself.
Thanks for reading. If this guide helped you lot to install NVIDIA driver marrow Module CUDA as well as Pyrit on Kali Linux 1.0.7 marrow 3.14 – CUDA, Pyrit as well as Cpyrit-cuda, delight percentage this article as well as follow me inwards Facebook/Twitter.
