Overview
So I have installed nvidia-driver-470
using sudo apt-get install nvidia-driver-470
which is recommended by the official website for my GT 730 GPU. Keep in mind I'm a newbie to Linux since I have only used it for one year, thus I read an article about installing this. So I did nvidia-smi
as said in the article. As a result I got this beauty:NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
