Inatalltion of graphic drivers

1st Official Post

    Hello guys,


    I finally upgraded my hardware with an old PC with an AMD HD6750 graphics card in it. Do I need to setup the graphic cards drivers or does apt-get upgrade automatically fetch hardware drivers? Because based of the instructions on AMD it seems to be a pain to install those drivers.

    Thanks for your reply. I mean to use the graphics card by for example jellyfin for hardware accleration or other docker containers like kasm or guacamole.

    I am able to add the device to the docker, but I don't know if the container is really using the card.

    To be able to use the card inside a container I would say that you must first install the drivers. This won't help you much since your graphics card is AMD but the concept is the same.

    - Nvidia driver 460.73.01
    - Cuda Version 11.2
