no CUDA-capable device is detected

Hello,

After I installed CUDA and test it with running deviceQuery (from NVIDIA_CUDA-8.0_Samples), it shows:

./deviceQuery Starting…

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

cudaGetDeviceCount returned 38
→ no CUDA-capable device is detected
Result = FAIL

I attach the nvidia-bug-report.log.gz and nvidia-installer.log files.

If any other information needed, please let me know.

Thank you!

The problem is solved.

For anyone who may meet this problem, the solution is:

My GPU is GTX 1080 TI, it can not use the drive provided by CUDA toolkit. Even everything seems fine, CUDA can not detect it. I use the driver version of 381.22. It can work.
