I finally installed the card and no issues so far. Is there a way to verify that the GPU is being used other then the computer information page for Computer 8816958?

You need to load the nvidia drivers so that BOINC can detect your card, Computer 8816958, which you havn't done yet.

Thanks. Is there a Debian apt call for such drivers or are they in the system and need to be activated?

Well this is fun...

The above link I had already found but the drivers do not appear to be in the available files free or non-free. I went to nvidia directly and downloaded the latest driver for my card and ran: sudo sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-440.36.run. I get the error that it cannot find the gcc library. I installed the gcc library and ran it again. Received another error that I needed to install ‘Make’. I installed Make and now received the following and am not sure what to do:
===

This is the log.

A little help on this one please.

Thanks.

Update:

I ran -

sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev

And -

sudo apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)

Then

sudo sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-440.36.run

again and received the same error as above.
