Steam doesn't open when using CUDA Driver Ubuntu 20.04

rated 0 times [ 0] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 1040 / 2 Years ago, sat, october 22, 2022, 9:15:20

I need to use CUDA 11.1 driver for machine learning. Steam requires libnvidia-gl-450:i386 driver to be installed in order to open. However, installing one driver removes the other. How would I be able to use both of them at the same time or be able to play steam games while using a CUDA driver?

I've tried How do I install NVIDIA and CUDA drivers into Ubuntu? but it only works for 18.04. A similar question was asked here but there isn't any answer.

I found the solution. Install Anaconda from the official site (download and run their script). Then run in your terminal:

conda create -n environment_name

conda activate environment_name

conda install cudatoolkit=11   

conda install python=3.7

Afterwards you'll need to conda activate your environment every time you start working on your project. To search for packages, use conda search. It will install the CUDA toolkit in the virtual environment instead of in the system.
