Interesting, can you describe this in a bit more detail? It runs completely counter to my experience, so far NVidia for me has just been a long string of 'boring' in that it just works. Even applications written for older cards and older versions of CUDA have continued to work just fine.

It was so bad, we just moved to immutable GPU infrastructure regardless of physical or virtual. When a new release of all the nvidia stuff comes out, we re-image the machine and install it.

Cuda on linux with ml/gpu workloads is still kind of a hotmess and i'd say we're far from finding a winner like some suggest here.

It's gotten better... but still far easier to treat it like a mess and start fresh with any install
