[gmx-users] error in nvidia cuda installation

[Neda Rafiee]

Dear Stephane,
I tried to install drivers and cuda as was syggested in the link you sent me yesterday. I go through the first steps, but after choosing to install cuda and replying yes to all the questions,  I got an error indicating that drivers installation failed. What should I do now?
Thanks
Neda

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
