AMD APP SDK on Ubuntu with AMD CPU and nVidia GPU?

Hi! The title sums my question up.

Is it possible?

Right now I'm using the nVidia drivers for OpenCL, but want the benefits of the AMD APP SDK too.

To elaborate, I suppose I want two platforms, one with the nVidia GPU as a device and the other with the AMD CPU as a device.

Will the nVidia-supplied /usr/lib/libOpenGL.so libOpenCL.so be overwritten if I try to install the AMD APP SDK?

Any ideas/experiences regarding this?

yes it is possible. AMD APP SDK doesn't contain an libOpenGL.so. i am not entirely sure about libOpenCL.so but they are compatible so it doesn't matter which one is in use.

Thanks!

Wrong of me, I meant libOpenCL.so.

I might install the SDK this weekend and hope I don't break anything.
