I understand that I am running the Tesla K80 not in its preferred environment, but I have seen regular consumers use this product successfully so I tried it myself.https://blog.thomasjungblut.com/random/running-tesla-k80/
I followed this, with an bit more up to date ubuntu version (Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS) and the driver from here, but the graphics cards memory is unassigned
/sbin/lspci -d "10de:*" -v -xxx

I think this is claiming the memory
[ 0.193803] pnp 00:00: disabling [mem 0xfed40000-0xfed44fff] because it overlaps 0000:03:00.0 BAR 1 [mem 0x00000000-0x3ffffffff 64bit pref]

A other synthome of this problem is that my tty2 get flooded with this these messages:
[ 606.073710] NVRM: The NVIDIA probe routine failed for 2 device(s).
[ 606.073711] NVRM: None of the NVIDIA devices were initialized.

NVRM: ownership of the device's registers.
[ 606.554683] nvidia: probe of 0000:03:00.0 failed with error -1
So the only other graphics drivers that were installed and not blacklisted(like the nouveau) where the intel i915, but blacklisting them, got me these errors
16.326014] NVRM: GPU 0000:03:00.0: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x22:0xffff:667)

Since the Nvidia Tesla K80 does not have video output, I prefer having the integrated graphics card drivers installed.
