Hi every body. I was retry the next code:

#-------------------

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Clean install…

$ su $ add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa Install nvidia dpkg(same code). $ apt-get update $ exit

$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-361 $ sudo apt-get install cuda

Into Ubuntu System setting and ReSelect gpu driver “361.45.11”

$ gedit .bashrc

Add string to end line…

export PATH=/usr/local/cuda/bin:$PATH export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

$ sudo reboot

$ sudo apt-get install digits

start digits and run NMIST… Done 1min14sec at 2GPU

sucsess!! thanks every body.

What I did to make it work:

uninstall cudnn4 using “ubuntu software center” - @gheinrich as it is not used in digits 3.0
uninstall cudnn5 using “ubuntu software center”

From terminal: sudo apt-get --purge remove digits sudo apt-get update

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install nvidia-361 sudo reboot

CUDA_REPO_PKG=cuda-repo-ubuntu1404_7.5-18_amd64.deb && wget http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1404/x86_64/$CUDA_REPO_PKG && sudo dpkg -i $CUDA_REPO_PKG

ML_REPO_PKG=nvidia-machine-learning-repo_4.0-2_amd64.deb && wget http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/machine-learning/repos/ubuntu1404/x86_64/$ML_REPO_PKG && sudo dpkg -i $ML_REPO_PKG

!!! Don’t install cuda 7.5 as it removes libcuda1-361 (361.45.11-0ubuntu0~gpu14.04.1) … and switches back to driver version 352.93

I was not aware, that installing a cuda version changes the driver as well…

In the “system settings \ software & updates” “additional drivers” tab make sure, that driver 361.45.11 is selected.

btw, @lukeyeager there is driver version 364.19 appearing as well, can we also use that?

In terminal sudo apt-get install digits

then the MNIST example runs like a charm…
