I seem to have successfully installed cuda-9.2 (Please see output of nvcc -V and nvidia-smi below). I am using Nvidia driver version 396.37, which satisfies the requirement for cuda-9.2 (version >=390). I am using a Titan Xp with Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS.
I have followed the Cuda Toolkit Documentation instructions for installation to the letter, but I am unable to successfully execute the make command at step 7.2.3.2 Compiling the Examples. The (rather lengthy) error message is provided below. I have no idea what is going wrong, I have ensured all permissions for the directory containing the sample code with sudo chmod 777 NVIDIA_CUDA-9.2_Samples. I have been trying for days to properly install cuda, and had a similar issue while installing cuDNN. If anyone can provide any insights I would be eternally grateful!
