This system has 8x A100 compute GPUs, is running Ubuntu Server, and I specified --gpgpu because I want the server compute drivers. But U/D is still insisting on installing the desktop graphics driver instead -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-drivers-common in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1936679 Title: ubuntu-drivers --gpgpu is not installing -server packages Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Discovered while testing the ubuntu-drivers-common package in -proposed for bug LP:1898601 While waiting on bionic to deploy for verification, something was bugging me about Focal verification from the other day so I re- deployed a DL380 with 4x T4 GPGPUs with Focal and added u-d-c from proposed. What I missed when verifying the other day was that it actually isn't installing the -server package on my server in gpgpu mode. After chatting a bit with Alberto, --gpgpu is supposed to install the nvidia-driver-VER-server package. Instead, the version in -proposed is actually installing nvidia-driver-VER which is incorrect. Attached is a tarball from a fresh focal install that includes the output when doing 'ubuntu-drivers --gpgpu install' and 'ubuntu-drivers --gpgpu debug' after installing the driver.
