Rather than installing a You could install the driver directly (e.g.now using, say, apt install nvidia-430), let. But don's get t! ====CUDA==== Get CUDA 10.1 and have it install its preferred driver(418.67): *The installation instructions are here: https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html*You can down load CUDA from here: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads?target_os=Linux&target_arch=x86_64&target_distro=Ubuntu&target_version=1804&target_type=runfilelocal Essentially, first install build-essential, which gets you gcc. Then blacklist the nouveau driver (see https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html#runfile-nouveau) and reboot (to a text terminal) so that it isn't loaded. apt-get install build-essential gcc --version

====Hardware check====
Check that the hardware is being seen:
driver : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin
wget https://developer.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/10.1/Prod/local_installers/cuda_10.1.168_418.67_linux.run
vi /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0
update-initramfs -u
shutdown -r now
lspci -vk
Shows no Kernel driver in use!
Then run the installer script.
sh cuda_10.1.168_418.67_linux.run
===========
= Summary =
===========
Driver: Installed
Toolkit: Installed in /usr/local/cuda-10.1/
Samples: Installed in /home/ed/, but missing recommended libraries
Please make sure that
- PATH includes /usr/local/cuda-10.1/bin
- LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes /usr/local/cuda-10.1/lib64, or, add /usr/local/cuda-10.1/lib64 to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig as root
To uninstall the CUDA Toolkit, run cuda-uninstaller in /usr/local/cuda-10.1/bin
To uninstall the NVIDIA Driver, run nvidia-uninstall
Please see CUDA_Installation_Guide_Linux.pdf in /usr/local/cuda-10.1/doc/pdf for detailed information on setting up CUDA.
