Public bug reported:

Notice: I have not reproduced this bug myself, nor do I have the needed
setup to reproduce this bug. This is a bug report based on info provided
to me over IRC.

In order for CUDA compute to work, a kernel module "nvidia-uvm" is
necessary. This module *should* exist in the headless NVIDIA 390 driver.
However, it apparently does not exist - it does not show up in the
output of "lsmod", attempting to modprobe it fails, doing a recursive
grep on /lib/modules/$(uname -r) does not reveal it, and it appears that
the Installable Client Driver is not loading correctly.

>From my own personal experience, I know that nvidia-uvm *does* exist in
recommended driver for an NVIDIA 1050 Ti card, however the 390 driver
used with the GTX 570 card does not appear to have the driver, even
though the card supports CUDA.
