14.04 - Can I swap out Nvidia cards without having to reconfigure the drivers? - Ask Ubuntu
currently running ubuntu 14.04.1 lts on desktop gtx 650 **with drivers version 352.63, cuda 7.5, cudnn, digits, tensorflow.
i gtx 1060 card.
would matter of powering down, swapping cards , booting again; driver recognize card?
normally works, except in case need newer drivers in ubuntu gtx 1060, released after ubuntu 14.04.
first, update nvidia drivers latest version:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install nvidia-370
then reboot.
after you've installed
nvidia-370
can safely power machine off , swap out card.
