Dear @artsera,
Please give the full error trace you're seeing and if it didn't come from running python -m bitsandbytes
then run that and also post the output of that here as well.
The error you're describing can pop up if the instance where you're running things doesn't have a functional CUDA installation. Therefore, please also paste the output of nvidia-smi
.
In a collab notebook you can run shell commands by prepending a !, so you'd have to run
!nvidia-smi
!python -m bitsandbytes
System Info
Intel Core i7-9700KF Processor 3.6GHz with Nvidia GTX 1070 8Gb Debian 12 Linux Built bitsandbytes from source code with GNU gcc 11.3.0 in accordance with instructions from: https://github.com/TimDettmers/bitsandbytes/blob/main/docs/source/installation.mdx
Reproduction
Here is a colab reference for code that produces the error under python 3.10:

Expected behavior
I would expect the code to work or give me a useful error message that allowed me to make whatever adjustments would be necessary to avoid the error situation.
