how to install nvidia drivers on centos 7

The bundled nvidia graphics driver within the n file is not always the latest. The CUDA install is basically the same process. ideally do one last reboot to validate everything is working.then do a systemctl isolate graphical.target or init 5 and if a graphical console works then log in, and set back to systemctl set-default graphical.target if you prefer.after successful install, /usr/bin/nvidia-smi should be present and work.download NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-460.67.run from nvidia.Simply reinstalling nvidia via the n file will fix that.īelow is my preferred method for doing NVIDIA install (and cuda) under RHEL/CentOS 7.x which has served me well (for about the last 3 years) However that does not explain why /usr/bin/nvidia-smi says command not found which is another matter, but that is where nvidia-smi should be and /usr/bin should obviously be in your PATH. Be aware the nvidia driver is a kernel module and it is often lost after doing a yum update when a kernel update happens the nvidia kernel module is not preserved (unless you have DKMS installed) so nvidia functionality will then cease. You stated I have an NVIDIA driver installed however you did not describe how you installed it.
