I'm having trouble getting the nvidia drivers to load.
root@pve:~# nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
root@pve:~# lspci | grep -i nvidia
85:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP107GL [Quadro P1000] (rev a1)
85:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GP107GL High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1)
root@pve:~# nvidia-detect
Detected NVIDIA GPUs:
85:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GP107GL [Quadro P1000] [10de:1cb1] (rev a1)
Checking card: NVIDIA Corporation GP107GL [Quadro P1000] (rev a1)
Your card is only supported up to the 390 legacy drivers series.
Your card is also supported by the Tesla 440 drivers series.
Your card is also supported by the Tesla 418 drivers series.
It is recommended to install the
nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver
package.
root@pve:~# apt install nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Package nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
So how do I install the legacy driver? Assuming I need to uninstall the current driver that is installed using apt install nvidia-driver?
Thanks for any assistance!
