I had a problem with window edges after waking from suspend - see here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/896221/strange-artifacts-along-window-borders-after-waking-computer-from-sleep-mode/

For this reason I upgraded to the newer driver, from 375.39 to 381.09.

Since upgrading, I have had to reinstall the Cuda Toolkit 8.0 (and CUDNN v5.1), however there seems to be a driver file missing, which prevents me from installing both Tensorflow and the gputools package in R, which build upon the Cuda Toolkit, which in turn needs the missing libcuda.so.1 file.
Neither Tensorflow no gputools are able to locate the file: libcuda.so.1.
Here is a similar issue, but with older drivers involved: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/4078

I have read that I could possibly create this file as it is a symlink, however I would prefer not to, as I do not know what other dependencies exist.
Example of possible workaround: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/41890549/tensorflow-cannot-open-libcuda-so-1

I am running Ubuntu 16.04.

Can somebody see why this file is missing or propose a stable solution?
