I am not sure if this step is really necessary for just having the system up and running but as I want to use CUDA in my Deep Learning Adventures and the Nouveau drivers don’t support CUDA I make this preparation. Next, I prepare the system by blacklisting the Nouveau drivers (the open source reverse engineered drivers for NVIDIA hardware). sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa I wanted the proprietary drivers with bleeding edge repository available to have the latest drivers from NVIDIA, I have never had problems with an unstable system so far (fingers crossed). Step 1: Make the NVIDIA repository available Anyway, hope this helps someone else that’s in need of minimal instructions. There are many guides available but I want to keep my dedicated information at an arm-lengths distance. Now I have it available if I would make dumb mistakes again.
