What is the issue?

OS: Debian 12
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3060

Hello, Ive been trying to solve this for months, but I think its time to get some help!
Essentially on Debian, Ollama will only use the CPU and does not seem to discover my GPU:

I have installed the latest CUDA toolkit using:
https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads?target_os=Linux&target_arch=x86_64&Distribution=Debian

Here is the log of when I start Ollama:

Have you tried the debugging steps in https://github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/docs/troubleshooting.md#linux-nvidia-troubleshooting ?
