Check if desired version of your driver is installed

Sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers In case you still donвЂ™t have desired version of the driver installed, you can use the following commands: #1. NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 418.43 Tue Feb 19 01:12: #or you can use the following /proc/driver/nvidia/version are/jetbrains-toolbox/jetbrains-toolbox 401MiB | | Fan Temp Perf Pwr:Usage/Cap| Memory-Usage | GPU-Util Compute M. | GPU Name Persistence-M| Bus-Id Disp.A | Volatile Uncorr. In case youвЂ™ll need to find out driver version of your nVidia card, this is how you can check it: Mar 22 08:20:39 2019 #Nouveau bash -c 'echo blacklist nouveau > bash -c 'echo options nouveau modeset=0 > cat /etc/modprobe.d/nf #If nouveau is in use, you need to disable it before reboot.

In case you miss to do that or you are installing Ubuntu Server without GUI, itвЂ™s easy to install drivers later by executing the following command: #1. If you enable вЂњinstall third party proprietary driversвЂќ option during the Ubuntu installation, Ubuntu nvidia drivers should already be installed on your system and there is nothing else to do. If you are planning to use CUDA for Data Science stuff, I suggest to use Ubuntu as itвЂ™s dominant platform on server side computing in a Cloud. In this article: How to install nvidia driver on Ubuntu, IвЂ™ll explain how to setup nvidia driver on Ubuntu to start your CUDA tuning journey.ДЇirst decision you should make is about the operating system. To programming with CUDA, you need to know C, C++ or Python language (API is only available for those three languages). NVidia is one of the pioneers in exposing GPU power to developers, while other two manufacturers (AMD and Intel) are on the same path.ДЄlthough OpenCL (Open Computing Language) is an open, hardware agnostic approach (works on all вЂ“ nVidia, AMD and Intel GPU while CUDA works only on nVidia GPU), mainly due to a maturity of nVidia drivers, developer tools, better support and performances, IвЂ™ll give a slight advantage to their CUDA technology. Mainly due to inertia, it is expected that the same trend will follow enterprises in their Data Centers. In addition, all top 10 Supercomputers are based on GPU processing power, and all Cloud vendors are offering GPU instances in their portfolio. With a boom in Data Science space, graphical cards are usual guest in all modern Data Centers around the world.ДЄll big names in a server/data center market have already certified their products with powerful graphical card manufacturers. The article on the following link (taken from the ZDNet) describes nVidiaвЂ™s plans in detail: Today, on nVidia web you can barely find something about classical consumer video cards, as the whole site aim at Data Science (Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning / Deep Learning) and High Performance Computing (e.g. Traditionally main consumers of graphical cards are:

Main reason for that is a rise of Data Science, Artificial Intelligence and Deep Science, and many new technologies that relies on it like self driving cars, robotics etc. CUDA, OpenCL and GPU programming in general are hot topic in todayвЂ™s IT world.
