Broadcaster V16 requires CUDA 11 and the driver version to be >= 470 and < =515.  You can search for NVIDIA driver downloads at https://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us or simply use the version in the example below.

CentOS 7.9 on GCP, Azure or any cloud or bare metal or Amazon Linux 2:

  1. Update the OS and install development tools:

# yum -y upgrade
# yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools"
# yum -y install kernel-devel

  1. Reboot to load the latest kernel from the upgrade.

  2. Check to see if ‘nouveau’ module is installed.

# lsmod | grep -i nouveau

  1. If 'nouveau' is installed follow steps below to remove it.

# vi /etc/default/grub

  • Append the following line to the line starting with "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX":

rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau nouveau.modset=0

  • Update the grub configuration:

# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

  • Add 'nouveau' to the module black list:

# vi /etc/modprobe.d/local-blacklist.conf

  • Append the following line:

blacklist nouveau

  • Rebuild initramfs. 

The /boot partition or folder needs to have enough space for the updated initramfs file.

# cp /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img /root/initramfs-$(uname -r).img.before_update.bak
# dracut -v -f

  • Reboot the server and check that the ‘nouveau’ module is not installed.

# lsmod | grep -i nouveau

  1. Retrieve and launch the correct installer for the architecture:

  • For X86 64-bit machines, install the following NVIDIA Linux driver:
