Dear all,
I’m really new into the Ubuntu world and I’m not able to install the Cuda Toolkit9.1 requested by my application.
I downloaded it from the website and type this command:
sudo sh cuda_9.1.85_387.26_linux.run
The installation seems to begin but at the end, there is an error message:
Do you accept the previously read EULA?
accept/decline/quit: accept

Do you want to run nvidia-xconfig?
This will update the system X configuration file so that the NVIDIA X driver
is used. The pre-existing X configuration file will be backed up.
This option should not be used on systems that require a custom
X configuration, such as systems with multiple GPU vendors.
