Comment 3 for bug 1632019

I can confirm this bug on ubuntu 17.04.

running nvidia-smi fails:

jta@rachael:~$ nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI couldn't find libnvidia-ml.so library in your system. Please make sure that the NVIDIA Display Driver is properly installed and present in your system.
Please also try adding directory that contains libnvidia-ml.so to your system PATH.

adding LD_PRELOAD with the location of libnvidia-ml.so and running nvidia-smi works:

jta@rachael:~$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/nvidia-375/libnvidia-ml.so nvidia-smi
