The first build of this box was done with an installation of CUDA 10.1, which automatically installed version 418.67 of the NVIDIA driver. We then installed CUDA 10.0 under conda to support Tensorflow 1.13. All went mostly well, and the history of this page contains the instructions. However, at some point, likely because of an OS update, the video driver(s) stopped working. This page now describes the second build (as if it were a build from scratch). [[Addressing Ubuntu NVIDIA Issues]] provides additional information.

The second card is the Titan RTX (see https://devicehunt.com/view/type/pci/vendor/10DE/device/1E02).
Currently we are using the nouveau driver for the Xp, and have no driver loaded for the RTX.
driver : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin
You could install the driver directly now using, say, apt install nvidia-430. But don'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, if you have deviated from these instructions and already installed X Windows) so that it isn't loaded.
apt-get install build-essential
Shows no kernel driver in use!
You can install the driver directly either now or after installing Xwindows. If you do it before installing Xwindows, you will need to manually edit the Xwindows config files.   apt install nvidia-driver-430 ====CUDA==== Get CUDA 10.0, rather than 10.1. Although 10.1 is the latest version at the time of writing, it won't work with Tensorflow 1.13, so you'll just end up installing 10.0 under conda anyway. *The installation instructions are here: https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html*You can down load CUDA 10.0 from here: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-10.0-download-archive?target_os=Linux&target_arch=x86_64&target_distro=Ubuntu&target_version=1804&target_type=runfilelocalEssentially, first install build-essential, which gets you gcc.  Then run the installer script.and DO NOT install the driver (don't worry about the warning, it will work fine!): sh cuda_10.10.168_418130_410.67_linux48_linux.run  Do you accept the previously read EULA? accept/decline/quit: accept Install NVIDIA Accelerated Graphics Driver for Linux-x86_64 410.48?

Driver: Please make sure that - Installed Toolkit: Installed in PATH includes /usr/local/cuda-10.10/bin Samples: Installed in - LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes /usr/homelocal/edcuda-10.0/lib64, but missing recommended librariesor, add /usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64 to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig as root

To uninstall the CUDA Toolkit, run cuda-uninstaller Please see CUDA_Installation_Guide_Linux.pdf in /usr/local/cuda-10.10/doc/bin To uninstall the NVIDIA Driver, run nvidia-uninstallpdf for detailed information on setting up CUDA.
Please see CUDA_Installation_Guide_Linux ***WARNING: Incomplete installation! This installation did not install the CUDA Driver.pdf in /usr/local/cuda-10A driver of version at least 384.1/doc/pdf 00 is required for detailed information on setting up CUDA10.0 functionality to work. To install the driver using this installer, run the following command, replacing <CudaInstaller> with the name of this run file: sudo <CudaInstaller>.run -silent -driver Logfile is /var/logtmp/cuda-installercuda_install_2807.log
Fix Now fix the paths. To do this for a single user do: export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-10.10/bin:/usr/local/cuda-10.1/NsightCompute-2019.10${PATH:+:${PATH}} export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-10.10/lib64${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}}
Start But it is better to fix it for everyone by editing your environment file: vi /etc/environment PATH="/usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games" LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64" With version cuda 10.0, you don't need to edit rc.local to start the persistence daemon:
/usr/bin/nvidia-persistenced --verbose
This should be run at bootInstead, so: vi /etc/rc.local #!/bin/sh -e /usr/bin/nvidia-persistenced --verbose exit 0 chmod +x /etc/rcruns as a service.local Verify the driver: cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version
====Test the installation====
Make the samples in:... cd /usr/local/cuda-10.10/samples
make
And change into the sample directory and run the tests:
Change into the sample directory and run the tests: cd /usr/local/cuda-10.1/samples/bin/x86_64/linux/release ./deviceQuery ./bandwidthTest
And yes, it's a thing of beautyEverything should be good at this point!
