• check device

~$ lspci | grep NVIDIA
81:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 610] (rev a1)
81:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF119 HDMI Audio Controller (rev a1)

• check driver version

~$ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version
NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module  387.26  Thu Nov  2 21:20:16 PDT 2017
GCC version:  gcc version 5.4.0 20160609 (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.9)

• install cuda 9.0 with patches

https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads?target_os=Linux&target_arch=x86_64&target_distro=Ubuntu&target_version=1604&target_type=deblocal

• then

sudo apt-get install cuda-9-0
