After boot screen Orin AGX display stops working

I have been using my current build of the AGX for about a week.
im on Jetpack 6. r36.4

I flashed using the SDK manager.

I can see the Boot screen with the Nvidia eye then the screen goes black. If i unplug and plug the display port back in, the screen turns blue.

When I use ctrl+alt+F1 the screen goes black and im not given a terminal.

I then USB SSH in and ran from Here

sudo update
sudo upgrade
sudo dpkg --configure -a

reboot
try again but still same behavior.
Im at a Loss on how to fix and would like to avoid re-flashing

Hi,
If the device cannot be flashed/booted, please refer to the page to get uart log from the device:
Jetson/General debug - eLinux.org
And get logs of host PC and Jetson device for reference. If you are using custom board, you can compare uart log of developer kit and custom board to get more information.
Also please check FAQs:
Jetson AGX Orin FAQ
If possible, we would suggest follow quick start in developer guide to re-flash the system:
Quick Start — NVIDIA Jetson Linux Developer Guide 1 documentation
And see if the issue still persists on a clean-flashed system.
Thanks!

is this what you where asking for when you asked for?

buddy@Jarvis:~$ cat /etc/nv_boot_control.conf
TNSPEC 3701-501-0005-F.0-1-1-jetson-agx-orin-devkit-
COMPATIBLE_SPEC 3701--0005--1--jetson-agx-orin-devkit-
TEGRA_BOOT_STORAGE mmcblk0
TEGRA_CHIPID 0x23
TEGRA_OTA_BOOT_DEVICE /dev/mtdblock0
TEGRA_OTA_GPT_DEVICE /dev/mtdblock0

Originaly i flashed using the line below from Jetson AGX Orin FAQ

$ sudo ./flash.sh jetson-agx-orin-devkit internal

But I had a similar problem. After flash I could not see anything after the boot screen.
Then i moved to using the SDKmanager.

Just to clarify this first. It sounds like the monitor did not ever work on your side after you flash sdkmanager?

Is it a NV developer kit or a custom board? Or you are uncertain what my question means here?

So i see the NVIDIA eye and the boot options, then a lot of lines print.

then the screen goes black.
I can still SSH in to the agx.
It worked for several days then this problem started.

I used
Jetson AGX Orin 64GB Developer Kit

I would like to know if there’s a solution to this as well. I’ve recently upgraded from Jetpack 5.1 to 6.1 (today) and lost the display, outside of seeing the boot page. I can ssh as the poster has noted. Only difference is I have a 32GB Dev kit

please use ssh to share the /var/log/xorg.0.log out with monitor connected.
