I've installed CUDA, CUDA Toolkit and PyCUDA but there seems to be an issue in the pycuda compiler related to gprMax (as best as I can tell).  I've reinstalled the above and confirmed they all work but still end up with an error related to preprocessing to compile.  The error is below.  I'd appreciate any thoughts you might have.

I overlooked the fact that the computer I use at work is a heavily modified/constrained version. It has tons of layers of security protocols and etc. Instead I installed Ubuntu 16.04 and Cuda 9.0 toolkit and confirmed that Cuda solver works without any problems. Took me only 3 days with learning basic Linux along the way. I also created an image of the Ubuntu with CUDA working. I am not very familiar with Linux and I do not totally understand what Miniconda does. My best guess would be creating a Linux based environment to run python and other packages for gprMax to communicate and run on a Windows based OS. My terminology may be way off because I really even do not know the difference between build and install commands since Windows does things differently. I am afraid that the Miniconda is going to break programs/drivers in Linux that I wanted to ask whether there is another way to install gprMax on Ubuntu. How easy would it be compared to installing Miniconda?\r\n\r\nThanks"}}
