So as a reminder: always use GPUs via ''qsub'' (or ''qrsh''), never via ''ssh''. You can ssh to any machine e.g. to run ''nvidia-smi'' or ''htop'', but not to start computing on GPU.

 When not using Theano, just Tensorflow this can be simplified to ''export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/cuda-8.0/cudnn/6.0/lib64:/opt/cuda-8.0/lib64''. Note that on some machines (dll*, twister*), this is the current default even without setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but on other machines (kronos, titan, titan-gpu, iridium) you need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH explicitly. When not using Theano, just Tensorflow this can be simplified to ''export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/cuda-8.0/cudnn/6.0/lib64:/opt/cuda-8.0/lib64''.

 +TensorFlow 1.5 precompiled binaries need CUDA 9.0, for this you need to
 +
 +  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/cuda-9.0/lib64/:/opt/cuda/cudnn/7.0/lib64/
 +
 +You also need to use ''qsub -q gpu.q@dll[256]'' because only those machines have drivers which support CUDA 9.
