Validating the NVIDIA Driver Installation

Run the following command to verify that the NVIDIA drivers have been installed:

# nvidia-smi

The output will look something like the following:

If the nvidia-smi command does produce a result like shown above then the NVIDIA driver has not been successfully installed and you will need to repeat the installation process and try to determine where it failed.

If the nvidia-smi command was successful, open the Zixi Broadcaster UI in your web browser and on the Status page find the Machine Information and OS Information sections.  You should see an NVIDIA GPU listed and a driver and CUDA version as shown below:
