2nd GPU not being detected

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Setup and Installation
1

I have Quadro 2000 and RTX A5000.
I’m trying to use Quadro 2000 for my display only.
And RTX A5000 for deep learning purposes.

My RTX A5000 shows up properly but Quadro 2000, while it does get seen by lspci (btw, weird happening, not sure why A5000’s model name doesn’t show up, I might have messed something up I guess while using nvidia-config)
dzmn27@USMCDUDDOS393YZ:~$ lspci | grep VGA
03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 2231 (rev a1)
04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF106GL [Quadro 2000] (rev a1)

nvidia-smi doesn’t show Quadro 2000

How do I get quadro2000 to use the display and use the beefier A5000 for deep learning?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, it looks like the Quadro 2000 is too old. It’s a Fermi CC 2.1 card and the last driver to support it, is 390.147, which does not support Ampere, CC 8.6 - your RTX A5000.

You can confirm that 455.45.01 does not support the Quadro 2000 here, under the “Supported Products” tab:

Oh no :(
is there no way to have 2 drivers? (pardon me if this is a stupid question)

No.
