Verify CUDA installation in Ubuntu 18.06
I'm having problem after installing cuda on my computer.
The nvidia-smi command shows me this :
The nvcc --version command shows me this :
When I tried to use 'sudo apt install nvidia-cuda-toolkit', it installs CUDA version 9.
I would like to set CUDA Version: 11.1 as the default version. And when I use nvcc I would like it to shows me CUDA versions 11.1.
Thank you in advance for your help.

General instructions for installing CUDA Toolkit 11.4 can be found here.
When I used the "deb (network)" installation option, I did NOT see it installed in the expected location (/usr/local/cuda-11.4/bin).
However, using the "deb (local)" installation option, I was able to confirm the installation.
After that, it was just a matter of setting up the path to point to the install location, as mentioned in the documentation, here:
export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-11.4/bin${PATH:+:${PATH}}After running this, I was able to confirm that the correct version of nvcc was installed:
$nvcc --version
