Hi I’m having some trouble building and running the sample programs for Libargus that come with the SDK. I’m following the steps on this page → [L4T Multimedia API Reference: 09\_camera\_jpeg\_capture](https://docs.nvidia.com/jetson/archives/l4t-multimedia-archived/l4t-multimedia-281/l4t_mm_jpeg_capture_group.html) Skipped step 2 of the ‘Building and Running’ section because CUDA,Opencv4tegra,cuDNN, and TensorRT were already installed (through the NVIDIA SDK Manager, during setup and OS flashing). I’m not using a host Linux system either, so skipped step 4 too. The samples were located in a different location from what’s mentioned in the documentation - /usr/src/jetson\_multimedia\_api/samples/09\_camera\_jpeg\_capture. In case this is relevant. When I run ‘sudo make’, I’m getting this error: ```auto jetson@jetsontx:/usr/src/jetson_multimedia_api/samples/09_camera_jpeg_capture$ sudo make Compiling: main.cpp Compiling: /usr/src/jetson_multimedia_api/argus/samples/utils/Thread.cpp Linking: camera_jpeg_capture /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lEGL /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGLESv2 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Makefile:60: recipe for target 'camera_jpeg_capture' failed make: *** [camera_jpeg_capture] Error 1 ``` What is causing the problem, and how can it be resolved? Is it an installation problem with EGL, and if so - is there a way to reinstall just those components that would fix the issue and not cause any other problems? If there’s any other info I need to provide, I can do that. Very new to Jetson development. Any help is appreciated! Thanks. ---

hello vishnuvenkatesh99, may I know which [JetPack](https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/jetpack-archive) release version you’re working with, please also double check you’re using the same release of [L4T Multimedia API Reference](https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/downloads#?search=L4T%20Multimedia%20API) package. thanks ---

Hi JerryChang, thanks for the reply. I’m using JetPack 4.3, the most recent version (we installed JetPack using NVIDIA SDK Manager barely around two weeks ago). I presume I should be looking at the most recent version of the L4T Multimedia API Reference too - which is 32.3.1. I did happen to be looking at a slightly older version - 28.1 - but the relevant sections are the same in both versions, and slightly different from what actually was. Please advise. Thanks ---

Hi vishnuvenkatesh99, You can try following command and make again: ```auto sudo apt-get install libegl1-mesa-dev sudo apt-get install libgles2-mesa-dev cd /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ sudo ln -sf tegra-egl/libEGL.so libEGL.so ``` ---

Installation was giving us some trouble ([https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1071378/jetson-tx1/failed-to-install-sdk-components-on-jetson-tx1-using-sdk-manager/post/5427904/#5427904](https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1071378/jetson-tx1/failed-to-install-sdk-components-on-jetson-tx1-using-sdk-manager/post/5427904/#5427904)) so we managed to just flash the OS without installing JetPack, and then ran ‘$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-jetpack’ from the TX1’s terminal. It gave me different errors this time: ```auto jetson@jetson-desktop:/usr/src/jetson_multimedia_api/samples/09_camera_jpeg_capture$ sudo make Linking: camera_jpeg_capture /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lv4l2 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lEGL collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Makefile:60: recipe for target 'camera_jpeg_capture' failed make: *** [camera_jpeg_capture] Error 1 ``` > [@carolyuu](#): > > Hi vishnuvenkatesh99, > > You can try following command and make again: > > ```auto > sudo apt-get install libegl1-mesa-dev > sudo apt-get install libgles2-mesa-dev > cd /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ > sudo ln -sf tegra-egl/libEGL.so libEGL.so > > ``` Tried executing all of these as well. The first two packages were already installed and the last one created a broken link (screenshots attached) - so I took a look at the tegra-egl directory, and found that there was no “libEGL.so” there. The link doesn’t point to anything at the moment. ```auto jetson@jetson-desktop:/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/tegra-egl$ ls ld.so.conf libEGL_nvidia.so.0 libGLESv1_CM_nvidia.so.1 libGLESv2_nvidia.so.2 nvidia.json ``` No luck with either of the attempts.

Hi vishnuvenkatesh99, Looks you lost many files. Does the “sudo apt-get install nvidia-jetpack” command run success and full finish? $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install nvidia-jetpack Could you try using [sdkmanager](https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-sdk-manager) to flash and install sdk components again? ---

Is there a way to resolve the errors on the first few lines? An alternate way to get the .dtb file? Given the number of times I have tried reflashing the OS (definitely above ten times) I am starting to think I’m doing something wrong and the documentation I’m following may be outdated or incorrect. Could you possibly provide me with a procedure you know will work? (note: there seems to be very little documentation available for using SDK Manager. Most of it seems to be written before the SDK Manager was released). Are there any not-so-obvious steps I may have missed during the install? (for example, I saw a couple of threads where people had written about extending the memory using SSDs or external drives. Storage didn’t seem to be an issue in our case so I didn’t look too deeply into it) Really at the end of my wits here, have been trying different things for nearly a month now (including setting up a fresh Ubuntu install before downloading SDK Manager) and nothing has worked. Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance. ---

Hi vishnuvenkatesh99, This ERROR is known issue, sorry for confused you. You can ignore this error, we will fixed this issue on next JetPack version. Please try again and select correct target device, the sdkmanager will keep running and flash image and install sdk components. ---
