Editing CUDA + NVIDIA drivers (section)

== Installation ==
Download repo rpm from http://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads (or copy the repo file over from another similar system). For further information, see the [https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html Installation Guide for Linux] and the [https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-quick-start-guide/index.html CUDA Quick Start Guide].

=== Fedora 33 ===
Install the repo and then deploy the full package:
 sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/fedora32/x86_64/cuda-fedora33.repo
 sudo dnf clean all
 sudo dnf -y module install nvidia-driver:latest-dkms
 sudo dnf -y install cuda

=== CentOS 7 ===
It seems that the dependency for the linux kernel devel package has been lost ... and the driver install just silently fails
 yum install kernel-devel

Now install the repository
 sudo yum-config-manager --add-repo https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/rhel7/x86_64/cuda-rhel7.repo
 sudo yum clean all

On regular compute nodes where the full CUDA libraries aren't needed:
 yum install nvidia-driver-latest-dkms

On a full workstation or where CUDA is needed:
 sudo yum -y install nvidia-driver-latest-dkms cuda
 sudo yum -y install cuda-drivers

There is a yum plugin that facilitates the installation and management of NVIDIA kernel modules:

 yum -y install yum-plugin-nvidia

=== Debian 10/11 ===
Install the repo and then deploy the full package:
 sudo apt-get install -y software-properties-common
 sudo apt-key adv --fetch-keys https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/debian10/x86_64/7fa2af80.pub
 sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/debian10/x86_64/ /"
 sudo add-apt-repository contrib
 sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get -y install cuda

Alternatively, if the full CUDA distribution is not wanted/needed:
 sudo apt -y install nvidia-driver nvidia-smi

After the install completes, a reboot is required to activate the drivers.
