GTX 950 - CUDA driver version is insufficient (linux)

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Setup and Installation
1

Hi,

I’m on Gentoo with a 4.1.7-hardened kernel. I have a GTX 950, with the 361.28 drivers and CUDA 7.5.18.

I’m unable to run any CUDA application. They all fail with the same error:

./deviceQuery Starting...

 CUDA Device Query (Runtime API) version (CUDART static linking)

cudaGetDeviceCount returned 35
-> CUDA driver version is insufficient for CUDA runtime version
Result = FAIL

That is weird since from what I’ve gathered, the versions should be compatible. I have the same CUDA and drivers version on my home computer (different graphics card though) and it works perfectly.

Does someone has a clue ?

Thanks

Baptiste

Probably the driver is not installed correctly. What is the result of running

nvidia-smi

?

nvidia-smi indicates that the nvidia library is not found :(

I’ll uninstall anything NVidia-related and try to reinstall it again. I’ll get back here once it is done.
