How to install CUDA 8 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS?












2















Ubuntu 18.04 TLS has moved to CUDA 9.1 now, which deprecates the Nvidia Fermi Architecture.



I have tried installing the cuda 8 toolkit from nvidia with an --override option (to discard compiler verification) butthe installation failed as follows:



Command: sudo ./cuda_8.0.61_375.26_linux.run --override --toolkitpath /usr/local/cuda-8.0/



Output:



You are attempting to install on an unsupported configuration. Do you wish to continue?

    Apparently, you need to specify the toolkit location using option --toolkitpath.

  • I have already tried. Added my command in the post.

  • Actually, you don't need that option, since you're installing in the default directory. Have you uninstalled any previous version of Cuda Toolkit?

  • I have tried without the option --toolkitpath, and I was getting the same error. Indeed, I have installed the default nvidia-cuda-toolkit 9.1 from the ubuntu 18.04 repos. But I removed it after realizing my architecture was deprecated.

  • Make sure that there are no files remaining from the cuda 9.1 installation.

I have solved the issue using the following procedure:




  1. unpack .run file using the command: ./cuda*.run --tar mxvf

  2. copy unpacked file InstallUtils.pm to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base

  3. enter command in terminal: export $PERL5LIB

    There are two cleaner ways to solve this issue:




    1. Set current directory as perl library search path by: PERL5LIB=. sh cuda_8.0.61_375.26_linux.run your-other-options. Related link.

    2. Install the missing perl module by: sudo apt install module-install-perl. Related link
