          Ubuntu 18.04, CUDA 10.0 and NVIDIA 410 drivers:



          NOTE: CUDA 9.x is not available through NVIDIA's ubuntu1804 repo.



          These instructions are for installing CUDA through the repository instead of the .deb installation.



          The following lines you can copy and paste to a terminal window. Press Ctrl+Alt+T to open a terminal window.



          Remove any CUDA PPAs that may be setup and also remove the nvidia-cuda-toolkit if installed:



          sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda*
          sudo apt remove nvidia-cuda-toolkit


          Recommended to also remove all NVIDIA drivers before installing new drivers:



          sudo apt remove nvidia-*


          Then update the system:



          sudo apt update


          Install the key:



          sudo apt-key adv --fetch-keys http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64/7fa2af80.pub


          Add the repo:



          sudo bash -c 'echo "deb http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64 /" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda.list'


          Update the system again:



          sudo apt update


          Install CUDA 10.0.



          sudo apt install cuda-10-0


          It should be installing the nvidia-410 drivers with it as those are what are listed in the repo. See: http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64/



          Add the following lines to your ~/.profile file for CUDA 10.0



          # set PATH for cuda 10.0 installation
          if [ -d "/usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin/" ]; then
          export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin$PATH:+:$PATH
          export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
          fi


          Reboot the computer and check your settings when reboot is complete:



          Check NVIDIA Cuda Compiler with nvcc --version:



          terrance@terrance-ubuntu:~$ nvcc --version

            Ubuntu 16.04, CUDA 9.2 and NVIDIA 396 drivers:



            These instructions are for installing CUDA through the repository instead of the .deb installation.



            The following lines you can copy and paste to a terminal window. Press Ctrl+Alt+T to open a terminal window.



            Remove any CUDA PPAs that may be setup and also remove the nvidia-cuda-toolkit if installed:



            sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda*
            sudo apt remove nvidia-cuda-toolkit


            Recommended to also remove all NVIDIA drivers before installing new drivers:



            sudo apt remove nvidia-*


            Then update the system:



            sudo apt update


            Install the key:



            sudo apt-key adv --fetch-keys http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1604/x86_64/7fa2af80.pub


            Add the repo:



            sudo bash -c 'echo "deb http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1604/x86_64 /" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda.list'


            Install CUDA 9.2:



            sudo apt install cuda-9-2


            It should be installing the nvidia-396 drivers with it as those are what are listed in the repo. See: http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1604/x86_64/



            Verify that CUDA 9.2 was installed:



            ~$ ls /usr/local/cuda-9.2/
            bin include libnvvp nvml samples targets
            doc lib64 LICENSE nvvm share tools
            extras libnsight nsightee_plugins README src version.txt


            Now, add the following to your ~/.profile for the PATH and LD_LIBRARY. You can use the command gedit ~/.profile for editing:



            # set PATH for cuda 9.2 installation
            if [ -d "/usr/local/cuda-9.2/bin/" ]; then
            export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-9.2/bin$PATH:+:$PATH
            export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-9.2/lib64$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
            fi


            Reboot your system.



            sudo reboot


            Once the system is up, you can verify the installation by typing in the following:



            nvcc -V


            You should see something similar the following:



            ~$ nvcc -V

            Cuda compilation tools, release 9.1, V9.1.85


            And you should see the 396.xx drivers installed:

                  Ubuntu 18.04, CUDA 10.0 and NVIDIA 410 drivers:



                  NOTE: CUDA 9.x is not available through NVIDIA's ubuntu1804 repo.



                  These instructions are for installing CUDA through the repository instead of the .deb installation.



                  The following lines you can copy and paste to a terminal window. Press Ctrl+Alt+T to open a terminal window.



                  Remove any CUDA PPAs that may be setup and also remove the nvidia-cuda-toolkit if installed:



                  sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda*
                  sudo apt remove nvidia-cuda-toolkit


                  Recommended to also remove all NVIDIA drivers before installing new drivers:



                  sudo apt remove nvidia-*


                  Then update the system:



                  sudo apt update


                  Install the key:



                  sudo apt-key adv --fetch-keys http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64/7fa2af80.pub


                  Add the repo:



                  sudo bash -c 'echo "deb http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64 /" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda.list'


                  Update the system again:



                  sudo apt update


                  Install CUDA 10.0.



                  sudo apt install cuda-10-0


                  It should be installing the nvidia-410 drivers with it as those are what are listed in the repo. See: http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64/



                  Add the following lines to your ~/.profile file for CUDA 10.0



                  # set PATH for cuda 10.0 installation
                  if [ -d "/usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin/" ]; then

                  fi

                      sudo reboot


                      Once the system is up, you can verify the installation by typing in the following:



                      nvcc -V


                      You should see something similar the following:

                          Ubuntu 16.04, CUDA 9.2 and NVIDIA 396 drivers:



                          These instructions are for installing CUDA through the repository instead of the .deb installation.



                          The following lines you can copy and paste to a terminal window. Press Ctrl+Alt+T to open a terminal window.



                          Remove any CUDA PPAs that may be setup and also remove the nvidia-cuda-toolkit if installed:



                          sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda*
                          sudo apt remove nvidia-cuda-toolkit


                          Recommended to also remove all NVIDIA drivers before installing new drivers:



                          sudo apt remove nvidia-*


                          Then update the system:



                          sudo apt update


                          Install the key:



                          sudo apt-key adv --fetch-keys http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1604/x86_64/7fa2af80.pub


                          Add the repo:



                          sudo bash -c 'echo "deb http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1604/x86_64 /" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda.list'


                          Install CUDA 9.2:



                          sudo apt install cuda-9-2


                          It should be installing the nvidia-396 drivers with it as those are what are listed in the repo. See: http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1604/x86_64/



                          Verify that CUDA 9.2 was installed:



                          ~$ ls /usr/local/cuda-9.2/
                          bin include libnvvp nvml samples targets
                          doc lib64 LICENSE nvvm share tools
                          extras libnsight nsightee_plugins README src version.txt


                          Now, add the following to your ~/.profile for the PATH and LD_LIBRARY. You can use the command gedit ~/.profile for editing:



                          # set PATH for cuda 9.2 installation
                          if [ -d "/usr/local/cuda-9.2/bin/" ]; then
                          export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-9.2/bin$PATH:+:$PATH
                          export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-9.2/lib64$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
                          fi


                          Reboot your system.



                          sudo reboot


                          Once the system is up, you can verify the installation by typing in the following:



                          nvcc -V


                          You should see something similar the following:



                          ~$ nvcc -V
