Dear Neda,

GROMACS + CUDA wroks best if you install the driver and nvidia using the 
same download.
This works:

Long story short: install NVIDIA cuda + the driver from the very same 
package.
Be sure to remove all distribution-provided packages (sudo apt-get 
remove --purge *nvidia*, --purge IS important).

Best,

Stéphane
