As of now gpustat requires nvidia-ml-py >= 11.450.129, which +is compatible with NVIDIA driver versions R450.00 or higher. Please +upgrade the NVIDIA driver if gpustat fails to display process +information. + +The GPU ID (index) shown by gpustat (and nvidia-smi) is PCI BUS ID, +while CUDA uses a different ordering (assigns the fastest GPU with the +lowest ID) by default. Therefore, in order to ensure CUDA and gpustat +use same GPU index, configure the CUDA_DEVICE_ORDER environment variable +to PCI_BUS_ID . + +This is a very simple program, you might want to add its output to +some status bar, such as byoby, i3-bar, or xfce4-generic-monitor. |
