bugs still in this version, most reported 1-2 years before end of jetpack 4 developement:

GL_OES_EGL_image not available on OpenGLX

GL_OES_EGL_image is not reported as available as a GLX extensions. Please enable it as a GLX extension like the desktop 470+ drivers and MESA drivers.

Xorg ABI 21 not supported in 32.X.X

Xorg ABI 21 is not supported in 32.X.X. Many modern distros have moved to this xorg version and we are unable to create custom images for these distros due to nvidia jetson drivers not supporting this. Can this be added to a future 32.X.X release? I know the desktop gpu drivers already have it.

Wayland Hangs on Display Rotation, addition/removal, and display sleep

Tested on 32.3.1 up to 32.5.1 on jetson nano. When using the gnome wayland implementation, rotating the screen (whether through gui or any command) causes a hang of gdm/wayland process. Sometimes it doesn’t happen the first time but usually within the first few times you will get a hang on gdm thread (GUI doesn’t respond and gdm thread is at 100% when viewed over ssh). A hang can/will also happen on connecting another display/removing a display. When display begins to go to sleep (via timeout/…

Very Poor Framepacing and Performance When using Xorg Rotation

The use of xrandr rotation or manually specified metamodes causes a significant performance penalty for fullscreen and non fullscreen applications as well as reduces the framepacing consistentcy (which appears as stutter in scrolling text or gameplay). This has been a longstanding issue for both the embedded and nouveau drivers. Why not use the gpu for display transformations instead of using cpu for transformations (clearly indicated by the increased xorg cpu utilization when rotation is used)…

Request to Re-Openvery-poor-framepacing-and-performance-when-using-xorg-rotation/178451 due to NOT being fixed in 32.7.1

32.7.1 images and debs have been released. @WayneWWW stated this issue was fixed in this release and it is not. I am requesting this issue to be re-opened so that it can continue to be tracked there: Very Poor Framepacing and Performance When using Xorg Rotation for reference, the issue can easily be observed by compiling this test code from there and rotating the display or enabling the compositor GitHub - theofficialgman/gl-gsync-demo: Unofficial OpenGL VSync Demo for Linux

Is there a download URL for Jetson Nano JetPack 4.6.4 (4GB) SD Card Image?

The link I found on the JetPack 4.6.4 page is for jp_4.6.1_b110_sd_card/jeston_nano/jetson-nano-jp461-sd-card-image.zip. This file name implies JetPack 4.6.1 instead of JetPack 4.6.4.

Hi @marc, I don’t believe so - you would flash the JetPack 4.6.1 SD card image, then upgrade it to 4.6.4 via apt:

• How to Install JetPack :: NVIDIA JetPack Documentation

Hi
Can I install 4.6.4 jetpack using SDK manager on Jetson Nano 4GB Module (B01 version) ? I have installed SDK manager on my ubuntu 20.04 Host but I don’t see any SDK version option available to download here.
Can someone pls guide me how to proceed here ?

regards
Atul

This it’s bad things OTA it’s breaking everytime in bootloader for a long time in new change.
It’s needed new image for preventing these crash dpkg post install or needed SDK manager for flash it or use workarround move dpkg info to new for ignore apt install it .

It seems that you need to use Ubuntu 18.04 but not 20.04 to install Jetpack 4.6.4 on your nano.

You provides linux 4.9.253 in the sdk kernel source public_sources.tbz2 for r32.7.4 for t210
But somehow, you downgraded the kernel. can you make sure you deliver synced kernel source with the sdk? I had to git-clone the whole kernel.
