How to get nvidia-persistenced daemon to work properly?

I have some graphical issues on login when I'm using the intel gpu.

I checked the boot logs and it shows that the nvidia persistence service failed to load on the intel gpu. After running systemctl status nvidia-persistenced.service I found that nvidia-persistenced tries to run the following command /usr/bin/nvidia-persistenced --user nvidia-persistenced --no-persistence-mode --verbose but /usr/bin/nvidia-persistenced doesn't exist.



Does anyone know how to get nvidia-persistenced to run properly?

  • I have the same problem. If I boot on the intel GPU driver, nvidia-persistenced fails to boot. Also, if I try rebooting afterwards, the reboot process hangs and doesn't complete. However, if I boot on the nvidia GPU driver, I encounter none of the problems I mentioned.

    I tried several things and nothing works. I can get nvidia-persistenced running but when nvidia-persistenced works I can't start the nvidia gpu (it just crashes). Might be a problem with the kernel. I'm using 4.8 because it supports skylake but a lot of problems started to occur after upgrading. If I ever find a solution I'll post it here.

  • Much appreciated. Kernel 4.4 doesn't support skylake ?

  • it does but just barely. For example a lot of power saving options don't work on 4.4 with a skylake processor.

  • I'm using 4.4 right now. Do you suggest upgrading to a more recent kernel ?

At least for nvidia-375==375.66-0ubuntu0.16.04.1



sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia-375/bin/nvidia-persistenced /usr/bin/nvidia-persistenced


looks like enough.
