I'm sorry to post a question that's been asked before, but I'm trying to configure cuda on an ubuntu 18.04 machine and am a little stuck.
I tried to install cuda 10.0 from a bash installer. I opted to install the driver too when running the install. Now, however, running nvidia-smi yields:
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
I attempted to completely uninstall all drivers with the following:
sudo apt-get --purge -y remove 'cuda*'
sudo apt-get --purge -y remove 'nvidia*'
I then tried to install a new driver with sudo apt install nvidia-driver-440, but I continue to get "NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver."
I'm now trying to figure out how to get my nvidia driver to work peacefully with my system and enable nvidia-smi. If that's not possible, I'd like to install a new driver. Any pointers on how to achieve either of these paths would be hugely helpful! I'm happy to provide any information along the way that might be useful…
Some clues: X seems to be disabled now (see below) but normally there's a console. Also `inxi -G1 is reporting that I'm still using the nouveau driver instead of nvidia.
The machine has two Titan RTX chips attached. Here's a screenshot of them in action yesterday before I borked the drivers:
Here is the result of apt-cache policy:
