Ubuntu 16.04
64 bit
GeForce GT 710 (has Vulkan support!)
Hey,
I tried to install the vulkan driver upgrade from this page: https://developer.nvidia.com/vulkan-driver
I chose the 64 bit version, logged out, closed x-session, made it executable, run it and recieved the following error log…

ERROR: The Nouveau kernel driver is currently in use by your system. This driver is incompatible with the NVIDIA driver, and must be disabled before proceeding. Please consult the NVIDIA driver README and your Linux distribution's documentation for details on how to correctly disable the Nouveau kernel driver.
WARNING: One or more modprobe configuration files to disable Nouveau are already present at: /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf. Please be sure you have rebooted your system since these files were written. If you have rebooted, then Nouveau may be enabled for other reasons, such as being included in the system initial ramdisk or in your X configuration file. Please consult the NVIDIA driver README and your Linux distribution's documentation for details on how to correctly disable the Nouveau kernel driver.
ERROR: Installation has failed. Please see the file '/var/log/nvidia-installer.log' for details. You may find suggestions on fixing installation problems in the README available on the Linux driver download page at www.nvidia.com.
I’m following the tutorial on http://www.vulkan-tutorial.com . example doesn’t work, 'cause the vulkan driver doesn’t work. so why is that? I followed the simple steps… it makes no sense…
Thanks for any help in advance
