nvidia-smi doesn't work!
After fussing around with a few of the Deep Learning AMI's that were tedious to get the GPU backend running I thought I'd go to the source and load the NVIDIA AMI directly supported by the company that builds the hardware and would presumably know how to load the drivers for it....
WRONG!
After firing up a new p2.xlarge instance the most basic GPU command results in:
$: nvidia-smi
modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia not found.
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
REDICULOUS!
Come on AWS and NVIDIA...can you at least make your namebranded AMI work with your own code?
I also cannot face the same problem. Have it figure it the way already?
