Jetson Nano Image without Desktop

Hi, it seems like the Ubuntu desktop utilizes a lot of resources out of the Nano.
I tried removing the desktop but then my wifi card started acting out. I wonder if the removal of the desktop also took some libraries from the kernel and this messed up my wifi.

I had to reinstall a patch for the AX200 wifi card so it started working again.

Is there an image for the Nano SD card out there which is desktop free?

Thanks!

Hi,
There is no existing image without desktop. Would need to do customization based on sample rootfs.

Please refer to this topic:
Remove ubuntu-desktop and Install ubuntu-desktop

You may also consider to use light LXDE:
