[NLPL Task Force (A)] [rt.uio.no #3396801] newer CUDA versions on Abel

[Stephan Oepen via RT]

> Try logging in to c19-10 and test, the latest driver is now installed.

very cool!

---my older TensorFlow installation (release 1.11; built against CUDA
9.0) did not work out of the box on this node, but i found what it
takes to make it work again (and still work on the old nodes).  so, i
think we would welcome new drivers on all gpu nodes now :-).  (how)
can that be accomplished?
