So I’ve been trying to install the proprietary Nvidia drivers on my homelab so I can get my fine ass art generated using Automatic1111 & Stable diffusion. I installed the Nvidia 510 server drivers, everything seems fine, then when I reboot, nothing. WTF Nvidia, why you gotta break X? Why is x even needed on a server driver. What’s your problem Nvidia!
Those are different drivers, or rather different parts of the driver.
CUDA has been a staple in HPC for years now and the situation didn’t exactly improve.
I mean the number of people using beefy Linux workstations with desktop environments is likely to increase because of it, not referring to the datacenter market they’re already entrenched in.
