One solution, with or without a graphics card, is to not install the OpenGL libraries that come with the driver (and also make no modifications to nf).

My question now: Can I use this libcuda1-352 to compile a CPU-only C/C++ code through NVCC?

And, more importantly, I can now log back in to my X session. To remove all nvidia drivers and libraries, an I am left with just libcuda1-352 (a cuda runtime lib), when I run dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia I used sudo apt-get remove -purge nvidia-*

To uninstall the NVIDIA Driver, run nvidia-uninstall:īut I dont see those files in /usr/local/cuda-7.5/bin/ or in /usr/bin/ $ sudo /usr/local/cuda-7.0/bin/uninstall_cuda_7.0.pl By default, it is located in /usr/local/cuda-7.0/bin: To uninstall the CUDA Toolkit, run the uninstallation script provided in the bin directory of the toolkit. Now, I want to uninstall what I did - first try uninstalling nvidia driver alone, and then the complete cuda toolkit if that doesn’t work. Xlib: extension “GLX” missing on display “:0” I installed the CUDA-7.5 toolkit on Ubuntu 14.04 virtualbox, even though I did not have nvidia graphics card or an nvidia GPU (did this to get comfortable with the cuda environ on my system, before running it on an amazon GPU instance).īut it messed up my ubuntu virtualbox login screen - the login screen loops back to itself, and the ~/.xsession-errors says:
