Geforce 740M installing cuda

  • 772

I am trying to install cuda on Ubuntu 16.04 so what I first did was to check the pre-installation actions and verify that my system does fulfill the dependencies.

I deleted everything related to nvidia, downloaded the .deb file and installed it.

After that I added following to the PATH variable:

export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-9.1/bin${PATH:+:${PATH}}

now I tried this command:

cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version

but in the proc/driver/ directory is no nvidia folder...

and If it try to make a sample I get errors because there are no libraries or whatever even everything has been installed.

I am trying it for 3 days now :/

    The Problem was solved by installing the network version which installs the nvidia driver 390.

    In comparison the local version installs nvidia 387 which leads to problems on ubuntu 16.04.
