I am trying to install cuda 8.0 but unable to connect to driver when run 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.

uname -a

Could help on it? Thanks.

So did you install the driver for your P100? Please run nvidia-bug-report.sh as root and attach the resulting .gz file to your post. Hovering the mouse over an existing post will reveal a paperclip icon.

Hi updated as attached.

You attached the wrong file.
Required is nvidia-bug-report.log.gz

sorry updated

The kernel module didn’t get build. There should be a akmods script to build them and a log in /var/cache/akmods/nvidiasometing/…
Check if akmods is set to run on boot.

There is no akmods scripts under cache folder, i installed Package dkms-2.5.0-2.20180306gitb1b9033.el7.noarch. Not sure how to build kernel module with it?

akmods command:

it creates a log file in /var/cache/akmods/
dkms is a different mechanism to build kernel modules, requires the corresponding dkms driver package. Currently, you have a akmods driver package installed.
