I get the following error when l run tensorflow in GPU.
2018-09-15 18:56:51.011724: E tensorflow/core/common_runtime/direct_session.cc:158] Internal: cudaGetDevice() failed. Status: CUDA driver version is insufficient for CUDA runtime version
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "evaluate_sample.py", line 160, in <module>
tf.app.run(main)
File "/anaconda3/envs/tf/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tensorflow/python/platform/app.py", line 125, in run
_sys.exit(main(argv))
File "evaluate_sample.py", line 123, in main
with tf.Session() as sess:
File "/anaconda3/envs/tf/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tensorflow/python/client/session.py", line 1494, in __init__
super(Session, self).__init__(target, graph, config=config)

self._session = tf_session.TF_NewSession(self._graph._c_graph, opts)
tensorflow.python.framework.errors_impl.InternalError: Failed to create session.
Where do the following errors come from ?
E tensorflow/core/common_runtime/direct_session.cc:158] Internal: cudaGetDevice() failed. Status: CUDA driver version is insufficient for CUDA runtime version
and
tensorflow.python.framework.errors_impl.InternalError: Failed to create session.
Such tha my version of :
tensorflow is : 1.10

Updating nvidia driver solved this issue.
You can check your cuda toolkit compatiblity here. Then update your nvidia driver by downloading it from here.
