Unfortunately, this hack is necessary to support the DGX Spark. This is a patch to a health check that seems to run on every cell execution. Without it, the patched function crashes, execution doesn't happen, and Marimo is unusable. The patched function runs the following command, which produces this output: nvidia-smi --query-gpu=index,name,memory.total,memory.used,memory.free --format=csv,noheader,nounits 0, NVIDIA GB10, [N/A], [N/A], [N/A] Moreover, nvidia-smi without any options produces the following output. Notice that it prints *Not Supported* where memory usage should be reported: arjun@spark-397a:~$ nvidia-smi Thu Oct 16 19:48:43 2025 +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | NVIDIA-SMI 580.95.05 Driver Version: 580.95.05 CUDA Version: 13.0 | +-----------------------------------------+------------------------+----------------------+ | GPU Name Persistence-M | Bus-Id Disp.A | Volatile Uncorr.
