Thanks.
I compiled and tested PyCUDA on AWS p2.xlarge instance with CUDA 9.1.
(used AWS because my last machine with NVIDIA GPU died some time ago).

It mostaly works, there are only 2 tests failing:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pycuda/compiler.py:432:

I'll investigate it during the week, but except for that CUDA 9.1 looks
OK.


Best regards.
