Hi there! I have an old pc that I use as a server (I use Ubuntu Server) and I would like to add a NVIDIA 1050 to it (for jellyfin and guacamole).

In the past I tried to do it and somehow I corrupted the system when installing the video drivers, I have always had complications when installing NVIDIA drivers on Linux.

Could any of you help me know what is the right way to install the video drivers on a headless system and use it correctly with docker compose?

Thanks in advance 😄

Not docker but you could do k3s and use the Nvidia GPU operator to manage installing video drivers for you on your single node cluster.

Do you have a link to a tutorial on this? I’ve been thinking about adding my amd64 server with an nVidia GPU to my Raspberry Pi K3s cluster.

No! Maybe I should work on this because it was fairly simple for me to do after some research.

That would be pretty dope. If you end up writing it up don’t forget about me 😁

I didn't know about it, thanks! I'll give it a try 😄

It actually was pretty straightforward. Saying this from experience as I used a tensortt container image with a 1060 for image clarification
