I ran into a similar problem when I upgraded from jetpack 6.0 to jetpack 6.1. The nsight compute version 2024.3.1 worked for ncu but not for ncu-ui. The solution posted on this site did not address the problem. I teach a computer architecture class and we distribute jetson orin nano’s to the student…

I am going to include the .ncu-rep file. I created this file using ncu, and when I try to run ncu-ui it crashes the same way. This was from the cuda routine vectorAdd. report.zip (16.2 KB)

Hi, @nbeser1 Sorry for the issue you met. This seems same issue as this Nsight Compute crash with message: free(): invalid pointer You can upgrade cuda toolkit to have another try. [image] CUDA Toolkit 12.1 Downloads Get the latest feature updates to NVIDIA's proprietary compute stack…

Are you suggesting that I upgrade the cuda toolkit on the jetson orin nano to 12.8? I did not think that jetpack 6.2 would permit that. I developed a work around that I would not recommend to anyone yet. I have a jetson orin nano that is running jetpack 6.0 with cuda 12.2.140. It has nsight-compute …

Yes. You need to install compat package also to make CUDA 12.8 compatible with Jetpack 6.2

What compat package to make it comply with jetpack 6.2?

Thank-you I will try that tonight and let you know.

I think the upgrade has caused a new problem. Our jetson orin nanos have dual cameras installed. Now if we try to use the camera we get the following error: $ nvgstcapture-1.0 Encoder null, cannot set bitrate! Encoder Profile = High Codec not supported. Falling back to opensrc H264 encoder Sup…

Sorry for the issue you met. But I don’t think cuda toolkit update would have impact on camera. From the log, it shows GStreamer related issue.

Adding @mstrengert to make sure to get some eyes on this.
