    21Hi,
    32
    43I installed the drivers based on the NVidia webpage instructions, which is the same as in the link you sent below (https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/nvidia-drivers-on-rocky-linux/12366#using-nvidias-official-repos-10).
    5 
     4{{{
    65In my case, I see this:
    76$ rpm -qa | grep -i nvidia
     
    2625nvidia-gds-12.4.1-1.x86_64
    2726dnf-plugin-nvidia-2.0-2.el9.noarch
    28 
     27}}}
    2928I am using lmod modules (module add cuda in this case) due to previous problems with cuda dependencies in Amber MD package. So the paths to cuda are not available in the environment unless module add cuda is called. I never noticed the issues before since GPU was recognized by the system and everything seemed to work fine. Only in chimerax, I needed to explicitly also add cuda for it to load.

    54 Comment (by Greg Couch):

    56  How are you loading the cuda module, and why isn't it always present?
    57 
    58  I would have expect that you would have picked one of the methods in
    59  https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/nvidia-drivers-on-rocky-linux/12366 to  install the NVidia driver.  On an Alma Linux 9 system I have access to, it  looks like they picked the rpmfusion option.  And I see the following  Nvidia packages installed:

    61  $ rpm -qa | grep -i nvidia
