Hi Andrea,
That's an ancient driver to be trying to install on Ubuntu18. I'd recommend doing the following from the terminal:
sudo bash
echo "blacklist nouveau" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
echo "blacklist lbm-nouveau" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
echo "options nouveau modeset=0" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
echo "alias nouveau off" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
echo "alias lbm-nouveau off" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
echo options nouveau modeset=0 | tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/nouveau-kms.conf
update-initramfs -u
reboot
sudo bash
systemctl stop lightdm.service
add-apt-repository -y ppa:graphics-drivers
apt-get update && apt-get -y install nvidia-driver-440
wget
http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64/cuda-repo-ubuntu1804_10.2.89-1_amd64.deb
dpkg -i cuda-repo-ubuntu1804_10.2.89-1_amd64.deb
rm -f cuda-repo-ubuntu1804_10.2.89-1_amd64.deb
apt-key adv --fetch-keys
http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64/7fa2af80.pub
apt-get update; apt-get -y install cuda-toolkit-10-1;
That will get you an up to date driver as well as CUDA 10.1 which you can use to compile the GPU code from Amber 18 + AmberTools 19.
All the best
Ross
