cuda_11.7_installation_on_Ubuntu_22.04

#!/bin/bash

### steps ####
# verify the system has a cuda-capable gpu
# download and install the nvidia cuda toolkit and cudnn
# setup environmental variables
# verify the installation
###

### to verify your gpu is cuda enable check
lspci | grep -i nvidia

### If you have previous installation remove it first. 
sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo apt remove nvidia-*
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda*
sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/cuda*

# system update
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

# install other import packages
sudo apt-get install g++ freeglut3-dev build-essential libx11-dev libxmu-dev libxi-dev libglu1-mesa libglu1-mesa-dev

# first get the PPA repository driver
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt update

# install nvidia driver with dependencies
sudo apt install libnvidia-common-515
sudo apt install libnvidia-gl-515
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-515

wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2204/x86_64/cuda-ubuntu2204.pin
sudo mv cuda-ubuntu2204.pin /etc/apt/preferences.d/cuda-repository-pin-600
sudo apt-key adv --fetch-keys https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2204/x86_64/3bf863cc.pub
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2204/x86_64/ /"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt full-upgrade
# installing CUDA-11.7
sudo apt install cuda-11-7 

# setup your paths
echo 'export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-11.7/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-11.7/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
sudo ldconfig

# install cuDNN v11.7
# First register here: https://developer.nvidia.com/developer-program/signup

CUDNN_TAR_FILE="cudnn-linux-x86_64-8.5.0.96_cuda11-archive.tar.xz"
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/redist/cudnn/v8.5.0/local_installers/11.7/cudnn-linux-x86_64-8.5.0.96_cuda11-archive.tar.xz
tar -xvf ${CUDNN_TAR_FILE}

# copy the following files into the cuda toolkit directory.
sudo cp -P cudnn-linux-x86_64-8.5.0.96_cuda11-archive/include/cudnn.h /usr/local/cuda-11.7/include
sudo cp -P cudnn-linux-x86_64-8.5.0.96_cuda11-archive/lib/libcudnn* /usr/local/cuda-11.7/lib64/
sudo chmod a+r /usr/local/cuda-11.7/lib64/libcudnn*

# reboot
sudo reboot

# Finally, to verify the installation, check
nvidia-smi
nvcc -V

# install Pytorch (an open source machine learning framework)
pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu117

somehow here:

sudo apt install libnvidia-common-515 sudo apt install libnvidia-gl-515 sudo apt install nvidia-driver-515 << i got redirected to 535 driver no matter what i do, then /usr/local/cuda-11.7/ its empty
