I am using 
ubuntu 10.04
nvidia cuda toolkit 4.0
nvidia gtx 670

truecrack slowly uses more and more ram as it runs. (after 6 days it has used 
about 10gb or ram). If I use a -m < 10 I get "try -XXXX".

also when i tried to compile truecrack v3 on the same system it skips over the 
correct password on the test truecrypt file I made resulting in a no password 
found message.

mmh.. have you tried with the cuda toolkit version 5.0 ? TrueCrack v3.0 was 
developing on 5.0 cuda toolkit.
