In the tests I did yesterday with the pyCuda examples the devicequery dump
shows that I was short on memory. After a reboot and check that device
memory was now ok, I had better luck with those examples where I didn't need
to fetch a library yet not installed.

However, to me it seems like a good idea to have a simple check on the
memory before trying to allocate in the examples and possible inform the
user of the reason for a failure.

I can both compile and run those supplied with the CUDA SDK toolkit.

Does not work.
