[solved] problems with multiple gpus with nvidia-313.18-1

Hello!  This post is more of a PSA.  My cuda programs started failing after the driver upgrade to nvidia-313.18-1.  It turned out that cuda was not detecting my second GPU when run as a normal user.  The programs would work when executed with sudo.  There is currently an updated package release in testing.  I will file a bug report if that update does not fix the problem.

Thank you for this. The legacy driver solves the issue. However, the bug is still present in nvidia-313.18-3 and nvidia-313.18-4.
