<http://groups.google.com/d/msg/theano-dev/-8WCMn2FMR0/bJPasoZXaqoJ>`_,
focusing on how to install the appropriate dependencies.

Nicolas Pinto provides `ebuild scripts <https://github.com/npinto/sekyfsr-gentoo-overlay/tree/master/sci-libs/Theano>`_.

AWS Marketplace with Bitfusion AMI
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AWS EC2 AMI pre-installed with Nvidia drivers, CUDA, cuDNN, Theano, Keras, Lasagne, Python 2, Python 3, PyCuda, Scikit-Learn, Pandas, Enum34, iPython, and Jupyter. Note, as always there is no charge for Theano and other open software, however there is a charge for AWS hosting + Bitfusion.

`Launch <https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B01IRAMCM8/ref=_ptnr_referral_docs_theano>`_ an instance from the AWS Marketplace.

Docker
~~~~~~

Builds of Theano are available as `Docker <https://www.docker.com>`_
images: `Theano Docker (CPU) <https://hub.docker.com/r/kaixhin/theano/>`_ or
`Theano Docker (CUDA) <https://hub.docker.com/r/kaixhin/cuda-theano/>`_. These
are updated on a weekly basis with bleeding-edge builds of Theano.
Examples of running bash in a Docker container are as follows:

.. code-block:: bash

    sudo docker run -it kaixhin/theano
    sudo nvidia-docker run -it kaixhin/cuda-theano:7.0

For a guide to Docker, see the `official docs <https://docs.docker.com>`_.
CUDA support requires `NVIDIA Docker <https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker>`_.
For more details on how to use the Theano Docker images,
consult the `source project <https://github.com/Kaixhin/dockerfiles>`_.
