Ubuntu 16.04 LTS NVIDIA Setup Guide

I found the directions about building a hash cracking rig from

http://www.netmux.com/blog/how-to-build-...acking-rig  to be excellent.

Although it uses  four  GTX 1070 FEs  in the text, I sub'ed four 1080 FEs without any problems.

However, the blog post specifies older software:

-Ubuntu 14.0.4.5 Desktop amd64
-Intel OpenCL Runtime 16.1 x64 Ubuntu Driver
-Nvidia Linux x86_64 375.20 Driver
-Hashcat v3.20

So these directions may not be applicable for everyone.

What may be of interest are several "gotcha" notes under the "INSTALLING SOFTWARE" section.

Check the "Step by Step" install procedures and compare with the latest software.
