Anyone point me to DVD drivers for the Jetson AGX Orin

Hello all,

Would someone be able to point me to a series of drivers for DVD readers and burners. I am unable to detect a Dell DW316 device with the stock version of Ubuntu. I have tried other readers with the same results.

Cheers,
Spicy

Hi,
We would suggest check which kernel configs need to be enabled for the device. The driver should be common for all DVD devices. Please search online and try to find out the configs.
And then you can follow developer guide to rebuild kernel images. Please refer to

Kernel Customization — NVIDIA Jetson Linux Developer Guide

A user points out a kernel config:
Unable to mount CDROM

Please give it a try.

USB storage sticks appear to work fine so this is why I was confused as to why I would need to rebuild anything for a DVD MSD. Is there a link to the kernel configuration files and how to edit.

Someone else just asked almost the same exact question. @DaneLLL posted that URL. The gist is that one needs to compile the kernel module. You don’t need to build an entire kernel, you just need a module which is configured against the running kernel’s configuration (and then a file copy to the right location). Instructions change depending on L4T release (see “head -n 1 /etc/nv_tegra_release”).
