Linux Error cuInit(): unknown error

[l_kareem_l]

Hi,

My PC Specification : GPU: 1660Super, CPU:Ryzen 5 3600,

I want to use this machine for cracking with hashcat

I installed The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali) Linux and updated / upgraded everything

then installed NVIDIA Drivers and CUDA Toolkit, then Hashcat



The problem is when I run hashcat It can't see the Cuda toolkit or the GPU

I searched for the error and any solutions but no luck.

I tried https://hashcat.net/faq/wrongdriver

I Read all FAQ section, Tried every solution there, Uninstall install drivers cuda ... etc



In the home Page it is said Required "NVIDIA GPUs require "NVIDIA Driver" (440.64 or later) and "CUDA Toolkit" (9.0 or later)"



By running

Code:

root@KPC:/# nvcc --version

##Result is :

Code:
