Request your support to solve my JetPack installation issues (JetPack 6.X on NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super Dev Kit (8GB)

Hello!

This is Aekavich A. I am installing JetPack into NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super Dev Kit (8GB).

As I am beginner to the GPU and JetPack installation, I need your prompt support to solve my JetPack installation issues:

Below explanation includes the details of issue and request to you as follows:

Observed Issues: Please refer to attached image 1,2, and 3.

1. When I check for GPU information by running “nvidia-smi” in the command line, the result shows “N/A” for all metrics such as Persistence-M, Bus-Id, etc. and Memory-Usage value is “Not Supported”. My understanding is it seems like JetPack installation has some issues that computer can’t grasp the data of GPU (Orin).

2. By running “cat /etc/nv_tegra_release”, I can get the current/latest JetPack installation, which is R36 (release) REVISION: 4.3 or JetPack 6.2 Linux 36.4.3

3. On the other hand, by running “sudo apt-cache show nvidia-jetpack | grep “Version””, I can get that there are 2 different versions of JetPack in this computer:

• Version: 6.2+b77 → JetPack 6.2 Linux L4T 36.4.3

• Version: 6.1+b123 → JetPack 6.1 Linux L4T 36.4.0

4. By running “sudo apt-cache show nvidia-jetpack”, I can get more details of 2 JetPack versions installed in this computer (Just detailed information of the above 3)

5. By running “apt-cache policy nvidia-jetpack”, I can get information about Installed version and 2 Nvidia-JetPack candidates.

My suspicious actions:

1. I run “sudo apt update” and “sudo apt full-upgrade -y” . After that, 2 JetPack versions are co-existed in the computer.

2. I run “sudo apt install nvidia-jetpack=6.2+b77”
   because running “sudo apt install nvidia-jetpack=6.1+b123” causes error message “unmet dependencies” and “Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages” → Refer to Image4 and 5 [File name : Image 4.png and Image5.png]

Question to be requested for your support :

1. Is GPU JetPack successfully installed? Why are GPU information almost N/A?

2. Do 2 detected versions(JetPack 6.1 & 6.2) matter incomplete JetPack installation (i.e. conflict packages)? If yes, how to solve the issue?

Your prompt response is highly appreciated.

Best Regards,

Aekavich A.

nvidia-smi not support jetson currently. Please use jtop or tegrastats to check.

Just use

sudo apt update 
sudo apt install nvidia-jetpack

And you could install nvidia-jetpack with JP6.2 version

Thanks
