Could not load nvidia-uvm

rated 0 times [ 5] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 21226 / 3 Years ago, wed, september 1, 2021, 12:09:51

I want to use CUDA on my pc (using bumblebee), but whenever I want to start a cuda-driven program, I get the error modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia-uvm not found. I already installed nvidia-337-uvm via apt-get, but nvidia-modprobe can not find the module. So, what am I doing wrong? System is Ubuntu 14.04.

Thank you!

I got the same problem on my machine, I find the solution here:

Edit the file /etc/modprobe.d/bumblebee.conf or create a new file if you are not using bumblebee and add a line to it:

alias nvidia-uvm nvidia-340-uvm

You should replace nvidia-340-uvm into the version you are using. You can find it by

sudo updatedb

locate --regex nvidia-.*-uvm.ko
