# Update CUDA on Lambda Cloud

## post by ilazarevsky on Mar 15, 2020

Hello!

I rarely need multiple GPUs, so Lambda Cloud offer seems very good. But there’s old pytorch (0.41) and Cuda (9.x). While I can build my python environment fast, updating cuda to 10.1 seems complicated (a lot of package errors, in the end only one GPU was visible). Is there a fast way to do it, like bash script, and are there any plans to update cloud instances?

I can’t even figure out how to install the latest nvidia drivers. I have enabled the [graphics-drivers PPA for xenial](https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa?field.series_filter=xenial), but for some reason, the nvidia-graphics-drivers-### packages don’t show up in apt / aptitude.

I guess you need to download the installer from Nvidia?

I’ve updated my cloud instance by the following steps:
