Alrighty, I had to go to class but I just got back and I was looking into this more, it appears that all of the kernel files are there.
nouveau is blacklisted and should not be running.
here is what my lsmod is showing
when I run 'sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep -i nvidia' a lot comes up, however when I run 'sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep -i nouveau' I get two entries... I am now removing nouveau since that seems to cause a lot of issues, and since I am early in the install process I can always just re image the machine. Here are the outputs of the two commands now:
The outside of Hashcat the only things I have installed at this point are openSSH, pure-FTP, and vnc4server.
Maybe I am asking the wrong questions in trying to fix this... Is there a different linux distro that is easier to set up for cudaHashcat? Because ultimately that is all this machine is going to be used for. It is a desktop and unless I feel like scanning my apartment complex 24/7 there is really no other need for the other tools that are included in The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali), I just figured it was one of the go to distros for this purpose.
I have never tried blackbox but I assume that is just as good as The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali). The only requirements I have are SSH, FTP, and VNC other than that distro is not an issue for me.
Cheers guys and thanks for helping a noob like me.
