How I fix this issue NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running
Was all about disabling secure boot since unsigned modules can't be loaded with secure boot.
it works for me, thank you!
go to device manager -> click on display adapters -> click on nvidia gpu -> enable
This worked for me
@srisaisubramanyam Can you be a little bit more specific ?
how i install nvidia driver for 570 with cuda 12.90 supported
@farid1965 Depends on the OS. If Windows, you can find everything you need on the Download page for Drivers on the official site of Nvidia. If Linux, try getting the one from your distro's package manager. Should be something like (correct me if I'm wrong) nvidia-driver-{driver_version} (at least on Debian).
Check If the NVIDIA Kernel Module Is Loaded
Open a terminal and run:
bash
lsmod | grep nvidia
If this returns nothing, the kernel module isn’t loaded. That’s your root problem.

Thanks! Disabling Secure Boot fixed the issue with nvidia-driver-570 on Ubuntu 24.04.
