Bug Description
Notice: I have not reproduced this bug myself, nor do I have the needed setup to reproduce this bug. This is a bug report based on info provided to me over IRC.
In order for CUDA or OpenCL compute to work, a kernel module "nvidia-uvm" is necessary. This module *should* exist in the headless NVIDIA 390 driver. However, it apparently does not exist - it does not show up in the output of "lsmod", attempting to modprobe it fails, doing a recursive grep on /lib/modules/
From my own personal experience, I know that nvidia-uvm *does* exist in recommended driver for an NVIDIA 1050 Ti card, however the 390 driver used with the GTX 570 card does not appear to have the driver, even though the card supports CUDA.
