Once the installation is finished we proceed to reboot the machine and we’re going to note that we have a nice screen resolution and our new Nvidia drivers installed, next we proceed with the toolkit installation like this. Now we can proceed with the driver installation, we navigate to our download path and execute the driver Once we know the correct compiler version, we need to set it up with an export like this Sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)Īfter installing this files we proceed to remove the nouveau driver completely from our system by executing the following commandĪpt-get remove -purge xserver-xorg-video-nouveauĪfter the removal of the driver has happened we need to restart our system in recovery mode, once restarted in recovery mode and having the nice console interface we proceed with the driver installation process, first we need to know which version of the compiler was used to compile the current system kernel, this because the system needs to compile the Nvidia driver, if we don’t know which version was used and which kernel we have, we can find that out by running the following command Once restarted we are going to note that the screen resolution got at a lower level and that means that the default driver was not loaded, then we need to get some header files from our repository to build the Nvidia driver, we do this by executing the following command. Note: to verify that we have the nouveau driver running, just run the following command, if it outputs something it means that we actually have a nouveau driver runningĪfter having the file for blocking the default driver in place, we proceed to restart the machine in default mode. Once we have completed the steps above and have downloaded the files needed for the installation we proceed to disable the nouveau driver which is the default driver for Debian, we do that by creating a new file: If we want to uninstall the CUDA driver just run the following command. If we are upgrading the Nvidia driver we don’t have to do anything just because the installer itself removes old driver versions. ![]() ![]() If you don’t have a valid GCC compiler installed please install it by running the following commandīefore we proceed with the actual installation process we need to uninstall any version of CUDA we had installed previously, if this is the first time you install CUDA please skip this step, we uninstall previous installations by running the following command Now we need to verify that we have a valid GCC compiler Now we need to verify the requirements to install CUDA. The installer file of the toolkit needed is the Linux RUN file for Ubuntu, the file name is: cuda_7.5.18_n. The latest driver version available for my cards is 352.79 and is available at, please make sure to download the latest version of your card driver.Īlso we need to download the CUDA toolkit 7.5 from located at. This tutorial explains how to install CUDA 7.5 Production Release in a Debian Jessie system, the first thing we have to do is to download the graphics driver from Nvidia website and select the current model of the graphics card we have, in my case I have a server with 2 Nvidia cards the first one is a GeForce GTX660 and the second one is a GeForce GTX650, if you’re not sure of which driver version you should install, you can check the driver versions and models in the following link
