I want to Cholesky decompose a matrix. It works fine on my CPU but when I move the matrix to my GPU the function fails with the following error:
import torch
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
cov = torch.eye(2).to("cuda")                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
torch.cholesky(cov)

My system:
Nvidia driver version: 410.79
Cuda version: 10.0
torch version 1.0.1.post2
I had my mate test it on his system and it worked, so it’s something nasty going on.
