Hi,

nvidia-smi is available from JetPack 6.0.

Thanks.

How to get it?
Now use this command in JetPack 5.

Can you give me some guidance?

Jetsons have a GPU which is integrated directly to the memory controller (an iGPU). nvidia-smi is mainly a desktop PC program for use with GPUs that are wired through the PCI bus, a.k.a., a discrete GPU with its own memory (a dGPU). nvidia-smi has, in the past, never worked with an iGPU. It is JetPack 6 (which installs L4T R36.x, which in turn is Ubuntu plus NVIDIA drivers) in which a partial nvidia-smi framework has been adapted to the iGPU. There is no chance of nvidia-smi working in L4T R35.x (which is what JetPack 5.x installs). You must either (A) avoid using nvidia-smi as a GPU detection scheme, or (B), migrate to L4T R36.x+ (JetPack 6).

Thank you for your reply.
