This is guide, howto install nVidia CUDA Toolkit 10.0 on Fedora 28/27. I assume here that you have installed nVidia drivers successfully using my earlier Fedora nVidia Drivers Install Guide. You will need nVidia 384.00 or later version. This is initial version of this guide and as always remember backup important files before doing anything!
1. Install NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit 10.0 on Fedora 28/27
1.1 Download NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit 10.0 and Patch 1
Download NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit 10.0 runfile (local) from official CUDA Toolkit download page. Only Fedora 27 version available, but works on Fedora 28 too.
File is currently cuda_10.0.130_410.48_linux.run and when you use browser files are normally downloaded /home/<username>/Downloads/cuda_10.0.xxx_linux.run location.
1.2 Make CUDA installers executable
chmod +x /path/to/cuda_10.0*.run
1.3 Change root user
su -
## OR ##
sudo -i
1.4 Make sure that you system is up-to-date and you are running latest kernel
dnf update
After update reboot your system and boot using latest kernel:
reboot
1.5 Install needed dependencies
dnf install gcc-c++ mesa-libGLU-devel libX11-devel libXi-devel libXmu-devel 1.6 Run NVIDIA CUDA Binary
You will need nVidia Drivers > 410.xx (BETA) here, installer still says 384.00, but I can’t get CUDA working with 390.xx or 396.xx, so install nVidia 410.xx BETA Drivers first.
You have to use --override parameter, so you can run installer with newer GCC.
./cuda_10.0.130_410.48_linux.run --override ## OR full path / full file name ## /path/to/cuda_10.0.130_410.48_linux.run --override /home/<username>/Downdloads/cuda_10.0.130_410.48_linux.run --override
Output:
Logging to /tmp/cuda_install_23154.log

=========== Driver: Not Selected
Toolkit: Installed in /usr/local/cuda-10.0
Samples: Installed in /root Please make sure that - PATH includes /usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin - LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes /usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64, or, add /usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64 to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig as root To uninstall the CUDA Toolkit, run the uninstall script in /usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin Please see CUDA_Installation_Guide_Linux.pdf in /usr/local/cuda-10.0/doc/pdf for detailed information on setting up CUDA. ***WARNING: Incomplete installation! This installation did not install the CUDA Driver. A driver of version at least 384.00 is required for CUDA 10.0 functionality to work.
To install the driver using this installer, run the following command, replacing with the name of this run file: sudo .run -silent -driver Logfile is /tmp/cuda_install_23154.log
1.7 Post Installation Tasks
Make sure that PATH includes /usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin and LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes /usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64. You can of course do this per user or use some other method, but here is one method to do this. Run following command (copy & paste all lines to console) to create /etc/profile.d/cuda.sh file:
cat << EOF > pathmunge /usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin before if [ -z "${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}" ]; then LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64
else LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
fi export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH
EOFThen logout/login (simply close terminal and open it again). Now as normal user and root you should see something like (depends on your system):
[[email protected] ~]$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/cuda-10.0/bin:/usr/share/Modules/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/home/user/.local/bin:/home/user/bin
[[email protected] ~]$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/cuda-10.0/lib64
[[email protected] ~]$
1.8 Test Your Installation, Compile and Run deviceQuery

Result = PASS
Thats all, but you might see problems with other examples, because you have too fresh GCC.
Please let me know if you have problems!
