Hello Andreas, Thanks for your feedback. I have just rebooted and tested as you proposed:
First, unload is not possible as nvidia is in use. $ sudo modprobe -r nvidia [sudo] password for obry: modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia_drm is in use. modprobe: FATAL: Error running remove command for nvidia $ lsmod | grep nvidia nvidia_drm 53248 4 drm_kms_helper 192512 1 nvidia_drm drm 438272 7 nvidia_drm,drm_kms_helper nvidia_modeset 860160 9 nvidia_drm nvidia 13168640 594 nvidia_modeset $ nvidia-modprobe -u Let's check clinfo: $ clinfo Number of platforms 0 Not working, so let's run clinfo as root: $ sudo clinfo Number of platforms 1 Platform Name NVIDIA CUDA Platform Vendor NVIDIA Corporation Platform Version OpenCL 1.2 CUDA 9.0.282 Platform Profile FULL_PROFILE Platform Extensions cl_khr_global_int32_base_atomics cl_khr_global_int32_extended_atomics cl_khr_local_int32_base_atomics cl_khr_local_int32_extended_atomics cl_khr_fp64 cl_khr_byte_addressable_store cl_khr_icd cl_khr_gl_sharing cl_nv_compiler_options cl_nv_device_attribute_query cl_nv_pragma_unroll cl_nv_copy_opts cl_khr_gl_event cl_nv_create_buffer Platform Extensions function suffix NV Platform Name NVIDIA CUDA Number of devices 1 Device Name Quadro M1000M Device Vendor NVIDIA Corporation ... All fine now. And running clinfo as user also works fine at this stage and this until I reboot. And the permissions bits are ok: $ ls -la /usr/bin/nvidia-modprobe -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 34904 Jan 13 16:43 /usr/bin/nvidia-modprobe Please let me know if you want me to do some more testing. This seems fishy and I can assure you that I have the same issue on two different computers.
