cze 24 09:06:54 user1-945P-DS3 nvidia-persistenced[477]: Failed to query NVIDIA devices. Please ensure that the NVIDIA device files (/dev/nvidia*) exist, and that user 118 has read and write permissions for those files.

The point is that I don't have any nvidia folder in /dev but somehow graphic card works. I only have there three files: nvidia-uvm, nvidia0, nvidiactl. All have 0 B size.
