Public bug reported: Notice: I have not reproduced this bug myself, nor do I have the needed setup to reproduce this bug. This is a bug report based on info provided to me over IRC.
In order for CUDA compute to work, a kernel module "nvidia-uvm" is necessary. This module *should* exist in the headless NVIDIA 390 driver. However, it apparently does not exist - it does not show up in the output of "lsmod", attempting to modprobe it fails, doing a recursive grep on /lib/modules/$(uname -r) does not reveal it, and it appears that the Installable Client Driver is not loading correctly. >From my own personal experience, I know that nvidia-uvm *does* exist in recommended driver for an NVIDIA 1050 Ti card, however the 390 driver used with the GTX 570 card does not appear to have the driver, even though the card supports CUDA. ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2006408 Title: nvidia-uvm module does not exist, making CUDA unusable with the 390 driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/2006408/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
