Dear all, I will have access for a while to a ibm POWER9 machine. I don’t know the spec for now, neither OS nor GPU… what is the status of NVIDIA drivers on ppc64 ? regards

Assuming it is a AC922 system, it is supported. CUDA toolkit installers are at the usual location: [url] http://www.nvidia.com/getcuda[/url] Refer to the linux install guide for instructions: [url] Installation Guide Linux :: CUDA Toolkit Documentation If you only want to install a driver, you can…

thanks, my concern was about driver support… I found only tesla p100/v100, I hope we’ll have this in the box if not, there are no TITAN V ppc64 support available ?

only tesla p100 is supported in power8 only tesla v100 is supported in power9 documented in the linux install guide [url] https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html#system-requirements[/url] If you have an AC922, it has Tesla V100 in it.

Raptor Computing Systems sells Talos II PowerAI Development System based on POWER9 CPU and RTX2070 GPU. How can I download a RTX driver software for Linux running on POWER9 at the NVIDIA Driver Download site? Thanks.

Yeah, I had asked them about it and they told that you should contact to NVIDIA. It´s our everyday experience in the world. :-(

NVIDIA doesn’t provide any display driver support on Power architectures. That includes the idea that we don’t provide any support for display-out, OpenGL, and other “typical” graphics activities. With respect to GPU computing, the documented support for Power9 architecture is contained in the lin…

Thank you for your comments. If I install CUDA toolkit with another required OS, compiler and toolchain, I don’t need any display driver of RTX for GPU computing, correct? If so, I’ll try to challenge the combination for GPU computing. It’s also our everyday experience in the world. :-)

No, that’s not correct. The CUDA toolkit installer includes a driver installer. You cannot use a GPU for anything without a driver installed for it. You cannot use a NVIDIA GPU for CUDA computing without a NVIDIA GPU driver installed. There is no driver qualified, tested, or advertised by NVIDIA…

@raph38130 I’ve just installed the nvidia-drivers for ppc64le on a talos dual-core Power9 system with an NVIDIA Tesla V100 16GB GPU. The binary installer is much smaller than the ones for other architectures. It could be because 32-bit compatibility libraries are not included in the ppc64le arch, u…

Probably you should contact Raptor Computing Systems for support of their system.
