[doc][cuda][gpu] 11.1.1.1 Install the GPU drivers - do not install full X11 #1052
Description
11.1.1.1 Install the GPU drivers:
The following line would install full blown X11 on a node via dependencies. I don't think it's a good idea and also some dependencies like on libvdpau1 are not fulfilled with the default set of channels/repositories required by CaaSP product/docs:
- Please change line:
zypper install x11-video-nvidiaG05
To:
zypper install nvidia-glG05 nvidia-computeG05
The proposed packages contains bare minimum for the working CUDA feature on CaaSP nodes.
I have successfully tested with those packages on both v4 and v4.5 versions.
- Please modify also the "Note" box below where remove x11-video-nvidia string -
Some older devices may require the G04 driver package instead.
