I would probably skip this one, but go to it if other stuff is giving issues sudo apt install nvidia-cuda-toolkit I ended up installing the 9. Answer yes to the unsupported confguration. No to the nvidia driver. Yes- to the toolkit I used default install locations After that is installed then make sure you set up your paths.
Community Bot 1. Derek Stinson Derek Stinson 41 3 3 bronze badges. Good answer, but in my situation the Ubuntu repo nvidia driver was the wrong sub-version! At the time of posting this the nvidia package is version So I had to install So be sure to check the driver is the one you really need. Let's see how my answer for A Volatile Uncorr. Scott Stensland Martin Thoma Martin Thoma My own experience in CUDA installation. Tested on Ubuntu Install CUDA library for all users.
Most likely you'll have problems with previously installed graphical driver called Nouveau. Download 2. FooBar FooBar 1 1 silver badge 5 5 bronze badges.

Note: This guide covers installation only on systems with X Windows installed. To determine which distribution and release number you're running, type the following at the command line:. The remainder gives information about your distribution.
It is not required for running CUDA applications. It is generally installed as part of the Linux installation, and in most cases the version of gcc installed with a supported version of Linux will work correctly. To verify the version of gcc installed on your system, type the following on the command line:. If an error message displays, you need to install the development tools from your Linux distribution or obtain a version of gcc and its accompanying toolchain from the Web.
The CUDA Driver requires that the kernel headers and development packages for the running version of the kernel be installed at the time of the driver installation, as well whenever the driver is rebuilt. For example, if your system is running kernel version 3.
While the Runfile installation performs no package validation, the RPM and Deb installations of the driver will make an attempt to install the kernel header and development packages if no version of these packages is currently installed.
However, it will install the latest version of these packages, which may or may not match the version of the kernel your system is using.
Therefore, it is best to manually ensure the correct version of the kernel headers and development packages are installed prior to installing the CUDA Drivers, as well as whenever you change the kernel version. The kernel development packages for the currently running kernel can be installed with:. Installation instructions for them differ slightly. Compatibility mode is the only mode that is supported on certain distributions due to software dependency limitations.
The CUDA Toolkit can be installed using either of two different installation mechanisms: distribution-specific packages RPM and Deb packages , or a distribution-independent package runfile packages.
The distribution-independent package has the advantage of working across a wider set of Linux distributions, but does not update the distribution's native package management system. The distribution-specific packages interface with the distribution's native package management system.
It is recommended to use the distribution-specific packages, where possible. If either of the checksums differ, the downloaded file is corrupt and needs to be downloaded again. Before installing CUDA, any previously installations that could conflict should be uninstalled. See the following charts for specifics. Basic instructions can be found in the Quick Start Guide.
Read on for more detailed instructions. The Package Manager installation interfaces with your system's package management system. When using RPM or Deb, the downloaded package is a repository package. Such a package only informs the package manager where to find the actual installation packages, but will not install them. If those packages are available in an online repository, they will be automatically downloaded in a later step.
Otherwise, the repository package also installs a local repository containing the installation packages on the system. Whether the repository is available online or installed locally, the installation procedure is identical and made of several steps. Finally, some helpful package manager capabilities are detailed. These instructions are for native development only. The driver relies on an automatically generated xorg. If a custom-built xorg. You can try removing the existing xorg. The xorg.
The libcuda. For pre-existing projects which use libcuda. These packages must be installed separately, depending on which samples you want to use. These instructions must be used if you are installing in a WSL environment.
Do not use the Ubuntu instructions in this case. Below are some additional capabilities of the package manager that users can take advantage of. The recommended installation package is the cuda package.
This package will install the full set of other CUDA packages required for native development and should cover most scenarios. The cuda package installs all the available packages for native developments.
That includes the compiler, the debugger, the profiler, the math libraries, and so on. On supported platforms, the cuda-cross-aarch64 and cuda-cross-ppc64el packages install all the packages required for cross-platform development to ARMv8 and POWER8, respectively.
The libraries and header files of the target architecture's display driver package are also installed to enable the cross compilation of driver applications. The packages installed by the packages above can also be installed individually by specifying their names explicitly.
The list of available packages be can obtained with:. When a new version is available, use the following commands to upgrade the toolkit and driver:. The cuda-drivers package points to the latest driver release available in the CUDA repository. When a new version is available, use the following commands to upgrade the driver:. To avoid any automatic upgrade, and lock down the toolkit installation to the X. Side-by-side installations are supported. For instance, to install both the X.
Y and cuda-X. They are used to install many CUDA packages when you may not know the details of the packages you want. Below is the list of meta packages. This section describes the installation and configuration of CUDA when using the standalone installer. The standalone installer is a ". The installation steps are listed below. Distribution-specific instructions on disabling the Nouveau drivers as well as steps for verifying device node creation are also provided. Finally, advanced options for the installer and uninstallation steps are detailed below.
The Runfile installation does not include support for cross-platform development. Perform the pre-installation actions. Disable the Nouveau drivers. This can usually be accomplished by adding the number "3" to the end of the system's kernel boot parameters. Temporarily adding "nomodeset" to the system's kernel boot parameters may fix this issue. Consult your system's bootloader documentation for information on how to make the above boot parameter changes.
The reboot is required to completely unload the Nouveau drivers and prevent the graphical interface from loading. The CUDA driver cannot be installed while the Nouveau drivers are loaded or while the graphical interface is active. Verify that the Nouveau drivers are not loaded. If the Nouveau drivers are still loaded, consult your distribution's documentation to see if further steps are needed to disable Nouveau. If installing the driver, the installer will also ask if the openGL libraries should be installed.
If performing a silent installation, the --no-opengl-libs option should be used to prevent the openGL libraries from being installed. See the Advanced Options section for more details.
In some cases, nvidia-xconfig can be used to automatically generate a xorg. For non-standard systems, such as those with more than one GPU, it is recommended to manually edit the xorg. Consult the xorg. Verify the device nodes are created properly. Perform the post-installation actions. To install the Display Driver, the Nouveau drivers must first be disabled. Each distribution of Linux has a different method for disabling Nouveau.
However, some systems disallow setuid binaries, so if these files do not exist, you can create them manually by using a startup script such as the one below:. This is especially useful when one wants to install the driver using one or more of the command-line options provided by the driver installer which are not exposed in this installer.
All conda packages released under a specific CUDA version are labeled with that release version. I have Ubuntu Is the blacklist file sufficient to avoid conflicts between default Intel graphics and Nvidia graphics or is this flag also required during installation with run file.
I am a novice and do not understand the difference between the blacklist file and this flag. I have not done the following step, as I am uncertain how to do this - could this be the reason for the missing command? HI, thanks for this, it helped me a lot. A minor update: the latest driver runfile checks for X running before testing for nouveau, hence your pre install steps aren't correct anymore.
Better do the nouveau override and reboot before trying the installer IMHO. Thanks so much, one note, when I disabled lightdm I completely lost my screen, maybe smarter people than me know that that'd happen, but it may be worth mentioning? I googled around to find some solution where I could get a CLI, but quickly switched to SSH'ing into the machine from another machine on the network.
People who are installing with the. Are you sure you want to continue? Also: to not get stuck in the login loop add the option --no-opengl-files when executing the run file for the NVIDIA driver.
Thanks a lot for the tips.. As LauraRuis mentioned, adding option --no-opengl-files to execute the run file prevent login loop. I followed the instructions and I stuck in the login loop. After few hours struggle, I am back to the home desktop. I came to know that some weird Nvidia driver installation caused this problem. How do I choose right driver for my laptop? Many thanks for writing this excellent article, it really helped me.
Excellent guide. I had the login loop issue. The --no-opengl-files can flag along with the installation steps above solved the issue. I am new to this issue. I also added a nvidia K video for cuda computing. I started with a fresh install of Ubuntu After I installed the video sudo apt-get nvidia nvidia-modprobe. I wasn't able to login again. I suspect that the nvidia doesn't work with the motherboard video and that breaks something.
Well, it's clear that this excellent guide saved a lot of time of messing around. Mentioned driver version is outdated, but the idea is still the same. Works like a charm! Big thanks for your work. I would like to know that why additional softwares in system settings shows " No proprietary drivers are in use"? By the way, amazing solution, thank you. Just installed driver and CUDA without crashing my system as I haven't backed up some very important patent pending code!
I've just created a bash script that does all but the CUDA install. It's free to use! This is the most valuable document regarding CUDA install and drivers ever created. I tried for 2 weeks trying different things to get this to work. May you be forever blessed for sharing your findings. If anyone gets the blinking cursor in the upper left corner on reboot, and no other response, a solution is to Ctrl-Alt-F2 on Ubuntu. This will bring up a menu in which you can choose "Login with command line only" or something similar, I believe it is the last option of the 4 options presented.
Then you will have a command line from which you can continue to follow the instructions. Reboot again and you're golden. Dear wangruohui , I met a problem of my Ubuntu I installed Nvidia Titan X and drivers, Cuda, everything worked well half a year ago. But yesterday I restart my server, it showed the error "your system is running in low graphics mode Could you tell me what is wrong with my server and how to solve it? Thanks chaneyw you saved my day!!
Can you wangruihui please also add his advice to the tutorial? I actually got stuck there and was unable to input via keyboard on stopping lightdm. Thanks to y'all again. Thanks wangruohi, your guide helped me resolve ImportError: libnvidia-fatbinaryloader.
Hi, I installed Nvidia driver This installation did not install the CUDA driver. A driver of version at least And I'm sure that the version of installed Nvidia driver is greater than Because when I use nvidia-smi command, it shows that the version of my my Nvidia driver is Is there an easy way, or do I need to do everything from scratch? Thanks a lot. Thank you very much! You mentioned literally everything I needed.
After struggling for two days with nvidia drivers, I got the last version installed finally. I'm just going to try this installation guide since I've been trying for a couples of days many installation guides and Ubuntu releases without any luck and it's frustrating me. On some Ubuntu derivatives, you may run command to manually update the package cache:. Finally install the software. See here for a full list of available Qt4 libraries.
