[Professional Pro Test] Ubuntu16.04 Install NVIDIA graphics driver (CUDA)--Solve all your puzzles

Because we need to install CAFFE2, configure the cuda8.0, but the installation of Nvidia driver really is I stumped, read a lot of posts have no effect, now I re-summed up the next several installation methods (pro-test effective), hoping to help everyone.

View version Drivers

nvidia driver

method One:

PPA source Installation driver

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa  
sudo apt-get update  
sudo apt-get install nvidia-390 # Here to change the appropriate version of the
sudo apt-get install mesa-common-dev  
sudo apt-get install Freeglut3-dev

Test

after rebooting, enter in the terminal:

Nvidia-smi  #若出现电脑GPU列表, that is, the installation is successful
or
nvidia-settings #显示你的显卡信息

method Two: Manually to the official website to download. Run File Installation yourself

after the download is complete:

Uninstall all the previous drivers:

#for case1:original driver installed by apt-get:
sudo apt-get remove--purge nvidia*

#for case2:original Driver Installed by runfile:
sudo chmod +x *.run
sudo./nvidia-linux-x86_64-384.59.run--uninstall

Disable Nouveau:

sudo gedit/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

1

On the last line add:

Blacklist nouveau

After that, execute the command:

sudo update-initramfs-u
computer restarts after you perform
lsmod | grep nouveau  #没有输出, which means the installation was successful

Installation Drive go to command line interface

CTRL-ALT+F1, then enter the user name and password to log in. give execute permission to the drive run file (if the [sudo] computer name appears because the Chinese Ubuntu is installed, enter the login password)

CD Downloads
sudo chmod a+x nvidia-linux-x86_64-375.20.run

installation (note parameters)

sudo./nvidia-linux-x86_64-375.20.run–no-opengl-files

–no-opengl-filesInstall only the driver files and do not install OpenGL files. This parameter is most important –no-x-check do not check the X service when installing the driver –no-nouveau-check install the driver without checking Nouveau
The following two parameters are not added. Reboot with No recurring logon issues

PS: If because of their own operation error, loop login do not panic, do not reinstall the system, follow my steps, I have encountered these pits.

Circular Login Workaround

I hope we can all install successfully. If you encounter any problems, please describe your question in the comments.
