I am getting this error while trying ti install nvidia-cuda-toolkit. I can see the nsight-compute folder but it somehow during installation, it is throwing this error. Any help from your end will be highly appreciated

Hi @marya1
When using the local repo installer it is important to verify the integrity by comparison the file checksum with the posted checksum: https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/12.0.1/docs/sidebar/md5sum.txt

For example:

$ wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/12.0.1/docs/sidebar/md5sum.txt
$ md5sum -c <(grep cuda-repo-*.deb md5sum.txt)
cuda-repo-ubuntu2204-12-0-local_12.0.1-525.85.12-1_amd64.deb: OK

Afterwards, apt-get install the package name cuda-toolkit-12-0 or you can install one of these other meta-package entry points.

Please note that nvidia-cuda-toolkit package is not from the NVIDIA repository. You can check this by the repo URL with

$ apt-cache madison nvidia-cuda-toolkit
nvidia-cuda-toolkit | 11.5.1-1ubuntu1 | http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy/multiverse amd64 Packages

versus

$ apt-cache madison cuda-toolkit-12-0
cuda-toolkit-12-0 |   12.0.1-1 | https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2204/x86_64  Packages
cuda-toolkit-12-0 |   12.0.0-1 | https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2204/x86_64  Packages
