error running with a nvidia rtx pro 4500/5000

Hi, everyone

When I was using the Nvidia RTX PRO 4500/5000, I modified the Dockerfile, and the relevant information is as follows:

  1. using the nvidia/cuda:12.8.0-cudnn-devel-ubuntu22.04 image
  2. using jax[cuda12]==0.6.0 and 0.6.1 and 0.8
  3. upgrading to dm-haiku==0.0.14
  4. installing tensorflow==2.12.0 and latest

I can successfully compile it, and AlphaFold runs, but only using the CPU; it cannot utilize the GPU (nvidia-smi shows no processes). However, if I enter the AlphaFold container image, JAX can detect the GPU.

any suggestions?
