Here, I am documenting the steps I took to get my GPU set up. I do not expect these to be interesting to anyone else, but am making them public in case they may help anyone. Note that I did not start with a cold system, so these notes are likely incomplete. Summary of the fully installed system:
- OS: Ubuntu 17.10
- Card: TITAN Xp (memory: 12 GB)
- Driver: nvidia-387/artful (387.34-0ubuntu0~gpu17.10.2)
