I had to deal with what may be the same problem on updating from Ascii
to Beowulf.

The problem I found is caused by the nvidia-persistenced init not
checking for an existing running copy of nvidia-persistenced.

i) if you don't use CUDA then you can simply get rid of nvidia-
persistenced.

ii) if you want CUDA then you can patch /etc/init.d/nvidia-persistenced

My dev1galaxy forum posts might be of some help:

https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=20903#p20903
- my fixed version of /etc/init.d/nvidia-persistenced.

and
https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=20917#p20917

- which explains that you can probably also get away with simply
removing or disabling nvidia-persistenced as for most use cases it's
not needed unless you want to use CUDA.

If you can't access these I can send you the patched init.
