Is the container toolkit even necessary anymore in WSL2? I did a fresh install of windows 10 LTSC a few weeks ago and installed WSL2 and docker with WSL2 integration and I was able to use my nvidia rtx card (checked through nvidia-smi) without any issues.

It registered the card, as in you can query the device id using nvidia-smi. But CUDA/cuDNN requires further work.

Interesting. I'll have to check to be sure, but I think maybe something is happening automagically if you have reasonably up to date nvidia drivers on the host OS, because I was able to run the EmotiVoice TTS docker (which requires nvidia gpu) from WSL2.

What? No latest windows drivers give full cuda support in wsl out of the box. I am running all kinds of models without any issues at all.
