LM Studio on Linux Mint: Model Running on CPU Only Instead of GPU (Google E4B Issue)

LM Studio on Linux Mint: Model Running on CPU Only Instead of GPU (Google E4B Issue)

Yo, I want to ask how to install LM Studio on Linux Mint. I’ve already installed it, but somehow I didn’t fully install it properly and I can still open it from the terminal using the command ./lm-studio. I tried running a Google e4b model, but it only loads on the CPU and doesn’t use the GPU. I don’t know why that is happening.

Although I have installed CUDA and checked nvidia-smi, everything appears normal. When loading the model, I reduced the CPU threads to 0 so it wouldn’t use the CPU, but in the settings I still see it using nearly 200% CPU. I don’t understand what’s going on. I don’t know if this model only runs on CPU or not. I’m really not sure—hope someone can help me. Thank you.
