I am trying to get my GPU recognized by WSL2. I have followed this guide, looked at the reply to this post, ran through multiple other tutorials and I still cannot get my GPU connected. When I run the following command I get:
nvidia-smiNVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.even though I installed all the drivers given in the tutorial. I also have Windows Insider on Dev, installed all updates. Moreover, I am new to working with WSL which complicates things even further. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
My glxinfo -B output:
