Minimum CUDA version #866

Closed palladium123 closed 4 weeks ago

Hi

I recently upgraded from v 0.6 (yes, during Guillaume's time - have been busy with other things in life!). It now refuses to run- I got the error below which I am assuming it is due to old CUDA/Nvidia driver:

CUDA failed with error CUDA driver version is insufficient for CUDA runtime version

I am running CUDA 11.7 and driver version 472.12. I am not in a position to upgrade my CUDA/driver version as I use a secondary GPU (GeForce GT 710) to power some addiitonal displays (in addiiton to my main RTX 3090 - which is the device I am running faster-whisper on) and this is the latest driver that will support the Kepler arch. I am waiting for RTX Blackwell......

What is the minimum CUDA version that is required to run faster-whisper now? If it is >11.7, is there a workaround?

TIA
