After creating the VM with c0-deeplearning-common-gpu-v20240128-debian-11-py310 image, when I first logged into the VM, it installed the NVIDIA driver, and I was able to use the GPU. However, after I shut down the VM and started it back up, I get the following error:

NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

I tried to fix this by running the command.

sudo /opt/deeplearning/install-driver.sh

I get the following error

WARNING: The nvidia-drm module will not be installed. As a result, DRM-KMS will not function with this installation of the NVIDIA driver.
