Rocky Linux 9.2 NVIDIA-SMI has failed

Rocky Linux General

Hello there.
I try to install vGPU on Rocky Linux 9.2 but i have error
I setup this driver “nvidia-linux-grid-510-510.47.03-1.x86_64”

“# nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn’t communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.”

Any advice will help me.

I just installed NVidia driver without any problem.
Are you following NVidia’s installation document?
Follow installation instructions for RHEL 9.

The build fails. Does /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/510.47.03/build/make.log explain why?

Nvidia’s repo (cuda-rhel9-x86_64) seems to have support for driver versions 515–545; not for 510.

Explained, but I don’t know what they mean.

I’d guess that the 510 is too old to be built for the current kernels.
