Incorrect run file for NVIDIA-GPU Driver for Jetson Xavier NX on official site (CC version check failed)

Autonomous Machines Jetson & Embedded Systems Jetson Xavier NX

From NVIDIA’s official site to download drivers: [Official Drivers | NVIDIA](https://Official NVIDIA Driver Download),
Since the NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX has a dedicated integrated GPU called the NVIDIA Volta GPU
and the Volta architecture is mainly used for NVIDIA data center products, such as the Tesla V100 and GV100. These were my selections for to pick the driver:

Product Type: Data Center/ Tesla
Product Series: V-Series
Product: Telsa V100
Operating System (OS): Linux ARM 64-bit Ubuntu 20.04
and the CUDA toolkit is version 11.4.

Which gave me the following file run file NVIDIA-Linux-aarch64-470.182.03.run to use, however executing that file gave me the following warning and error also captured in the nvidia-installer.log file.

WARNING: You do not appear to have an NVIDIA GPU supported by the 470.182.03 NVIDIA Linux graphics driver installed in this system. For further details, please see the appendix SUPPORTED NVIDIA GRAPHICS CHIPS in the README available on the Linux driver download page at www.nvidia.com.

The kernel was built with aarch64-buildroot-linux-gnu-gcc.br_real (Buildroot 2020.08) 9.3.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.33.1, but the current compiler version is cc (Ubuntu 9.4.0-1ubuntu1~20.04.1) 9.4.0.

This may lead to subtle problems; if you are not certain whether the mismatched compiler will be compatible with your kernel, you may wish to abort installation, set the CC environment variable to the name of the compiler used to compile your kernel, and restart installation. (Answer: Abort installation)

The desktop GPU driver is not compatible with Jetson platform.
What’s the purpose you want to install the Driver?
You may find the Xavier NX Get start guide from Getting Started | NVIDIA Developer to get more understanding how to use this device.

So I created an O.S. image started with a minimal version of Linux for Tegra (L4T) by following this guide:
[Option: Minimal L4T - Guide to Minimizing Jetson Disk Usage](https://Minimizing Jetson Disk Usage)

a lot of the Jetpack pack components were removed.
With that said I piped installed pytorch and have a basic script to detect the GPU on the board and the script came back with 0 (attached).
Indicating that no GPU’s were detected by pytorch. Next I also want docker to use the gpu (i.e. docker run --rm --gpus all, or --runtime=nvidia).

Hi,

The driver from the website is for dGPU.
The iGPU driver is integrated into the L4T OS.

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, is there a command I can run to check if it is properly installed ?

Hi,

Usually, we test iGPU functionality with the deviceQuery sample:

Thanks.
