Well, I am the SysAdmin. I do generally try to avoid non-certified
drivers for things as specialized as GPUs, but there should be no
problem waiting until next week.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

_looks_ like the 361 version should become a Tesla
driver. NVIDIA does a significant amount of testing on
the Tesla drivers so their release cycle isn't quite as
often as their regular GPU cards. I think it was the
358.16 drivers that I've tried on the K40P cards and
didn't have any issues but I don't know how your
sys-admins feel about installing drivers which aren't
officially supported on the K80s. If you don't use them,
you'll then want 361.33 or newer driver.</span></font></span></p>

and search for Linux drivers for the k80, it's<br>
