I couldn’t find any soluation; so, I uninstall the cudatoolkit using this commands

Uninstall nvidia-cuda-toolkit and it’s dependencies

```auto
sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove nvidia-cuda-toolkit

```

from this answer[https://askubuntu.com/questions/530043/removing-nvidia-cuda-toolkit-and-installing-new-one?answertab=votes#tab-top](https://askubuntu.com/questions/530043/removing-nvidia-cuda-toolkit-and-installing-new-one?answertab=votes#tab-top)

Then I reinstall it by follow this article [http://simonboehm.com/tech/2017/06/23/installingTensorFlow.html](http://simonboehm.com/tech/2017/06/23/installingTensorFlow.html)

Which works for me, have good luck.
