December 13, 2020 | By the+gnu+linux+evangelist.

Installing

  1. 2. Pre-Installation Testing

    Then Verify on CUDA Capable GPU.

    lspci | grep -i nvidia

    But if you do Not see any NVIDIA hardware on Output then first install:

    sudo update-pciids

    Then try Again…

  2. 3. Installing Kernel Headers

    Next Install Xubuntu’s Kernel Headers.

    sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

    If Got “User is Not in Sudoers file” then see: How to Enable sudo.

  3. 4. Setting Up CUDA Repo

    See How Setup CUDA 11 Repository for Kubuntu Linux

    CUDA Repository Setup
  4. 5. Installing CUDA 11

    Finally, Install CUDA 11 Toolkit for Kubuntu Linux
    To search for the Available releases:

    sudo apt search cuda | grep 11

    So for instance, to install the complete CUDA 11.6 Release play:

    sudo apt install cuda-11-6

    Where for the CUDA 11.6 Driver only:

    sudo apt install cuda-toolkit-11-6
  5. 6. Setting Up Path

    Again Setup PATH Env Variable.
    This is necessary to Find the Binaries on System:

    echo 'export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-11.0/bin${PATH:+:${PATH}}' >> $HOME/.bashrc

    Possibly Amend the 11.0 with the Actual Version
    And Reload Configuration simply with:

    bash
