Thanks guys. Apparently the path and environment variables were set correctly and the libcart file was there, but the cuDNN was the wrong version installed. Had to use v6.0 instead of v5.1 which fixed the problem. Which is odd since this seems unrelated, but it was looking for a specific version. Thanks got TensorFlow working now!

You need to find the path of libcudart.so and need it Environment.

To find the location of libcudart.so.8.0 .Try this

sudo find / -name libcudart.so

This will list the actual path which will in the following format

<-Directory->/libcudart.so.8.0

Copy the Directory and add the following in /etc/profile

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:<-Directory->

Then update the source

source /etc/profile
