NVIDIA GPU driver deployment server documentation

First, install the system

The default installation, pay attention to partition:

/ The Boot 500M 
SWAP 64G
 / other spaces

 

Second, install the Desktop

Note: If you install a desktop version, you do not have to install the desktop

After the system is installed, you need to install a desktop environment, the desktop default kde

1 sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
2 sudo apt-get install lightdm

 

Third, install the IPMI Tool

1 sudo apt-get install -y ipmitool
2 sudo modprobe ipmi_msghandler
3 sudo modprobe ipmi_devintf
4 sudo modprobe ipmi_si

 

Fourth, install the NVIDIA driver

Download driver:

1 wget http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/410.93/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-410.93.run
2 chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-410.93.run

Remove the old drive (the new system does not require this step):

1 sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia*

Installation depends Software:

1 sudo apt-get install build-essential freeglut3-dev libx11-dev libxmu-dev libxi-dev libgl1-mesa-glx libglu1-mesa libglu1-mesa-dev

New file and writes the following:

1  Sudo vim / etc / modprobe .d / blacklist-nouveau.conf

 

new blacklist 
options again modeset = 0

 

install driver:

sudo update-initramfs -u
sudo service lightdm stop
sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-410.93.run --no-opengl-files
sudo service lightdm start

 

Fifth, the CUDA installation (or installed 10.0 9.2)

NVIDIA driver has been installed, do not need to repeat the installation (alternative to)

Installation CUDA 10.0

1 wget https://developer.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/10.0/Prod/ local_installers/cuda_10.0.130_410.48_linux
2 mv cuda_10.0.130_410.48_linux cuda_10.0.130_410.48_linux.run
3 sudo sh cuda_10.0.130_410.48_linux.run
4 sudo ldconfig /usr/local/cuda/lib64

 

Or install CUDA9.2 (Without NVIDIA Driver)

1 wget https://developer.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/9.2/Prod2/local_installers/cuda_9.2.148_396.37_linux
2 mv cuda_9.2.148_396.37_linux cuda_9.2.148_396.37_linux.run
3 sudo sh cuda_9.2.148_396.37_linux.run
4 sudo ldconfig /usr/local/cuda/lib64

 

Add following to the end of ~ / .bashrc and run "source ~ / .bashrc" (Note: The default has been added)

export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin${PATH:+:${PATH}}
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}}
