Cuda-11.8 gpu cuda image - any plans?

We are changing the way we do Linux CUDA images slightly. This will hopefully lead to more frequent updates. The new system will have one image family per major CUDA version, starting with v11. Can anyone here try it out and tell me what you think?

The new image is linux-cuda-11 and the first and only tag is 2023.02.1. This means to use the first image, you’d specify in your config:

linux-cuda-11:2023.02.1

This image contains CUDA v11.8.x, v11.6.x, and v11.4.x. The latest release included, in this case, vv11.8, will be the default. The default CUDA version can be changed by running the following:

sudo update-alternatives --set cuda /usr/local/cuda-11.6

That will change the default to v11.6 instead of 11.8.

In this image looks good, we will move forward later this month to a v12 image to exist in parallel with the v11 image.
