Navigate to the Additional Drivers tab and you should see that Nouveau drivers are being used. The Software & Updates app should be opened. To install the proprietary NVIDIA drivers, open the Software & Updates app from the Application Menu of Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 LTS as marked in the screenshot below. Here’s the system I’m testing and the Rack I’m building for Boinc, SETI & Asteroid.Installing NVIDIA Drivers using the Graphical User Interface: I’m currently on my knees to have him help me )Īnd thanks for answering me, not many do! He made 100% CLI installation with a absolute minimum installation of Ubuntu 12.04. I’ve got to know a guy from in here, “Gert-Jan”, a very clever fellow from the Netherlands. Because the CLI Ubuntu test I made did a much better job without the GPU than Ubuntu GUI did with the GPU! OK, it’s not the most hardcore GPU (Asus GeForce GT640) but it’s a good little workhorse )

I’ve already got a pretty good idea of the result. Then, if I succeed, I will compare these results against the results from the CLI based system.

I’m running to test systems right now, one using Lose’dows and one running the Ubuntu Desktop 12.04.4 to compare these to GUI systems. It’s to bad, because when a guy, just like me, invest in several real OK computers only to do number crunching, it’s impossible to make a system with only CLI based environments. Some in the same situation as me tried to make the GPU run using Wine, but most of the guys trying this gives in, and returns to the GUI method. The problem is that you need X to make the GPU run on OpenCL. I’ve been fighting this ever since, still no luck. What I was/am trying to do, is to make a CLI system, with the minimum installation to run Boinc and using the GPU/GPU’s for crunching data. A little late, but I have to let you know, that I was unspecific about my system.
