CUDA toolkit installation error related to nvidia-persistenced

Dear all,
I am trying to install CUDA toolkit through rpm (cuda-repo-rhel7-10-1-local-10.1.168-418.67-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm) on a centos 7 machine equipped with two RTX 2080 cards, with nvidia drivers 430.26. The installation stops with an error related to requirement of nvidia-persistenced-418.67-1.el7.x86_64, while the version installed is 430.26-1.el7. I tried to install the requested version through the rpm, but the installer complains for nvidia-driver-cuda = 418.67 is required. Shall I install this driver as well? Can conflicts arise with nvidia drivers 430.26?

Thanks a lot in advance
Stefano

Just install cuda-toolkit instead of cuda, this will leave your installed driver untouched
sudo yum install cuda-toolkit-10-1

Thanks for the suggestion, it worked.
