## OpenCV in lambda-stack - non-gpu?
**User:** Leon  
**Date:** Jan 27, 2021  
OpenCV GPU has to be installed manually and is to my knowledge not included in Lambda Stack. Here’s an article explaining it: [How to install OpenCV 4.2.0 with CUDA 10.1 on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa) | by Shitty Bots | Medium](https://medium.com/@sb.jaduniv/how-to-install-opencv-4-2-0-with-cuda-10-1-on-ubuntu-20-04-lts-focal-fossa-bdc034109df3)

## The TensorFlow library was compiled to use AVX2 instructions, but these aren't available on your machine

**Date:** May 17, 2019  
Your CPU just doesn't support AVX2. You have to uninstall the tensorflow CPU version and install tensorflow-gpu. That should probably work.

wget -O${LAMBDA_REPO} https://lambdalabs.com/static/misc/lambda-stack-repo.deb && \
sudo dpkg -i ${LAMBDA_REPO} && rm -f ${LAMBDA_REPO} && \
