How to install Cudnn from command line

Question

Cudnn: https://developer.nvidia.com/cudnn

I login and go jump through all the hoops that NVIDIA wants you to do; however, when it comes time to download the file I can't seem to figure out how to do it via wget and the command line.

I was hoping someone has done this. I've copy and pasted the link that they want to click and used this in wget copy-and-pasted-url. But I just get back an html file.

Answer 1

The following trick works with Firefox:

1. Download the file with your regular machine
2. Go to the downloads list in firefox, right click on the file and click "Copy original download URL"

3. Go to your pure-terminal machine, and type:

   wget PASTE-YOUR-LINK-FROM-FIREFOX

As @deltheil mentionned, by doing this the link contains a temporary download token, letting you download the file from another machine then the one it was requested from

EDIT

The downloaded filename is libcudnn***.deb?<some download token>. You will need to rename it by stripping the ? and everything after it:

mv libcudnn***.deb?xxx libcudnn***.deb
