Failed to install drivers of cuda erros were encountred while processing, nvidia-dkms-545, cuda-drivers-545, cuda-drivers


i need help with the installation of drivers, for will can make object detection in live stream with the zed camera.

CUDA drivers and video drivers from a desktop PC cannot be used. Jetsons have an integraged GPU (iGPU) which is wired directly to the memory controller, and desktop PCs have a discrete GPU (dGPU) on the PCI bus. Even if you were to use an arm64/aarch64 architecture driver, it would still be wrong due to the bus architecture.

Only CUDA and drivers from the JetPack/SDK Manager installer should be used, and this is what would be installed during a normal flash. The original Nano is quite old, and you’d be stuck with CUDA 10.

FYI, your L4T release (which is Ubuntu plus NVIDIA drivers) can be found with “head -n 1 /etc/nv_tegra_release”. You can go to this URL to find the correct software and JetPack/SDKM:
https://developer.nvidia.com/linux-tegra

If you get the latest R32.x JetPack, but the actual install is earlier, then you can start SDK Manager like this to see older releases:
sdkmanager --archivedversions

JetPack 4.x is tied to L4T R32.x, and this is the newest you can get with a Nano. They still have security and some bug fix releases, but new feature release no longer occurs.

It is possible that if you installed a desktop architecture video or CUDA driver that you will need to reinstall the Jetson. Details also differ depending on if it is a Nano developer’s kit versus a module with a third party carrier board.
