Since version 170.15 nvidia-drivers include 'nvidia-smi' - NVIDIA System Management Interface program. Originally it was intended for use with the Tesla S870 GPU, now it can be used to change compute mode of various GPU for CUDA purposes (since v2.2)

Can be fixed by simple: dobin ${NV_EXEC}/nvidia-smi || die
