Hello,
i am facing issues with installing a nvidia driver on my server.
My server has a GTX1080 running on CentOS Stream 8.
# cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS Stream release 8
# lspci | grep -i nvidia
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 [GeForce GTX 1080] (rev a1)
01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1)
I installed the NVIDIA Driver according to the instructions on the NVIDIA Driver Installation Quickstart Guide starting on Point 3.3 (Package Installers / CentOS)
followed by the post installation actions and completed the mandatory requirements.
When running nvidia-smi i get following error:
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
dnf list installed | grep nvidia results in:
# dnf list installed | grep nvidia
