Thank you for the reply Andreas, The NVIDIA driver was definitely updated. ( it was on the list of items in the Ubuntu "software updater" prior to running the updates ). I have included the lines of dmesg corresponding to NVIDIA below, after trying to rerun the import pycuda.driver in jupyter notebook.
-I am able to run my regular CUDA-C/C++ code binaries successfully after the update: Based on this am I correct in assuming that this is not necessarily a Nvidia kernel/driver mismatch issue? -Is there a way I can start from scratch and force pycuda to rebuild the installation? -Should I try to go to an older NVIDIA driver binary? Thanks output of dmesg ====================================================================================== [ 2.523799] nvidia: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel.
