To test my tensorflow installation I am using the mnist example provided in tensorflow repository, but when I execute the convolutional.py script I have this output:

My first idea was that maybe I had problems in cuda installation but I tested using one of the examples provided for nvidia. In this case I used this example:
NVIDIA_CUDA-8.0_Samples/6_Advanced/c++11_cuda
And the output is this:
GPU Device 0: "GeForce GTX 980 Ti" with compute capability 5.2
Read 3223503 byte corpus from ./warandpeace.txt
counted 107310 instances of 'x', 'y', 'z', or 'w' in "./warandpeace.txt"
Then my conclusion is the cuda is installed correctly. But I don not have any idea what is happening here. If someone can help me I will appreciated.
For more information this is my gpu configuration:

EDIT:
It is normal the two nvidia cards have the same physical id?

I encountered a similar error when I attempted to run the classify_image.py
script that is part of the image recognition tutorial. Since I already had a running Python session (elpy) in which I had run some TensorFlow code, the GPUs were allocated there and thus were not available for the script I was attempting to run from shell.
Quitting the existing Python session resolved the error.

The important points in the output you have shown is this:
I tensorflow/core/common_runtime/gpu/gpu_device.cc:885] Found device 0 with properties:
name: GeForce GTX 980 Ti
major: 5 minor: 2 memoryClockRate (GHz) 1.2405
pciBusID 0000:03:00.0
Total memory: 5.93GiB
Free memory: 5.83GiB
i.e. the compute device you want is enumerated as device 0 and
E tensorflow/core/common_runtime/direct_session.cc:137] Internal: failed initializing StreamExecutor for CUDA device ordinal 1: Internal: failed call to cuDevicePrimaryCtxRetain: CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_DEVICE
i.e. the compute device generating the error is enumerated as device 1. Device 1 is your display GPU, which can't be used for computation in Tensorflow. If you either mark that device as compute prohibited with nvidia-smi
, or use the CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES
environment variable to only make your compute device visible to CUDA, the error should probably disappear.
