- faster-whisper: Library libcublas.so.12 is not found or cannot be loaded (system has CUDA 13)
faster-whisper fails at the first GPU compute with "Library libcublas.so.12 is not found" because the ctranslate2 wheel is built for CUDA 12 and the system has CUDA 13. Install nvidia-cublas-cu12 and nvidia-cudnn-cu12 into the venv and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in a wrapper before Python starts.
- Black screen after restarting X: NVIDIA: Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module (kernel upgraded, not rebooted)
After a kernel and NVIDIA driver upgrade without a reboot, restarting X gave a black screen and "Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module". The running kernel had only the old module loaded. Build the module for the running kernel with DKMS, swap the modules, recreate /dev/dri, then reboot properly.
