Problem installing nvidia driver and cuda drivers on ubuntu18.04

Graphics / Linux Linux
1

Hello all,
I am trying to install the drivers for my computer running Ubuntu 18.04. I have tried installing drivers from the .run file downloaded for my OS from the nvidia site, as well as using sudo apt install nvidia-driver-460

nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn’t communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

sudo prime-select nvidia
Info: the nvidia profile is already set

sudo nvidia-settings

ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded

ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system

xrandr

And, when I try to run commands using eddy_cuda9.1, I get an error: EDDY::: EddyGpuUtils::InitGpu: cudeGetDevice returned an unknown error code
EDDY::: cuda/EddyGpuUtils.cu::: static void EDDY::EddyGpuUtils::InitGpu(bool): Exception thrown

Any suggestions?? Secure boot has been disabled.

Please run nvidia-bug-report.sh as root and attach the resulting nvidia-bug-report.log.gz file to your post.

Please disable secure boot in bios.

That seems to have worked. Sorry, I had thought the secure boot was already disabled.
now nvidia-smi provides:

When I try to run a command using cuda9.1, I receive this error:

Should I then reinstall older drivers that are compatible with cuda9.1? Or just wait until the new version of the software package is released later this year that is being built to be compatible with higher versions of cuda?

Thank you for your help! I appreciate it.

Cuda 9 is incompatible with Turing and above gpus, for your RTX 3090, cuda 11 should be used to be compatible.
