I installed MOFED 5.8. then I install nvidia-fs by sudo apt install nvidia-fs

then when I tried to load nvidia-fs driver, I see below error.

---error to load the nvidia-fs driver after install---

same issue

[KiranModukuri]

please install nvidia kernel open RM driver for the Proprietory symbol issues.

Starting with CUDA toolkit 12.2.2, GDS kernel driver package nvidia-gds version 12.2.2-1 (provided by nvidia-fs-dkms 2.17.5-1) and above is only supported with the NVIDIA open kernel driver. Follow the instructions in Removing CUDA Toolkit and Driver to remove existing NVIDIA driver packages and then follow instructions in NVIDIA Open GPU Kernel Modules to install NVIDIA open kernel driver packages.

Is anybody solve this problem？
