Timeout Error During `apt update` and Library Update Issue on Jetson Device -16GB emmc

Autonomous Machines Jetson & Embedded Systems Jetson Nano

Hello ,

I am encountering a couple of issues on my Jetson device and would appreciate any guidance or suggestions:

System Information:

  • Board Version: Jetson Nano B01 (16GB eMMC)
  • JetPack Version: 4.6.5
  • OS: Ubuntu 18.04
  • DeepStream Version: 6.0
  • NVIDIA Driver Version: 32.7.5

Issue 1: Timeout Error During apt update

When I try to run sudo apt update, I get the following timeout error during the update process:

finagle@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt update
[sudo] password for finagle: 
Sorry, try again.

The issue seems to occur while fetching updates from the NVIDIA repository https://repo.download.nvidia.com/jetson/t210/r32.7, and it reaches a timeout during this process. I have already tried the following steps without success:

  • Checked the internet connection
  • Attempted the update multiple times
  • Checked if the server or repository is accessible

I also tried manually updating the repository paths, but it didn’t resolve the issue. Is there a known issue with the NVIDIA repositories, or could this be a configuration issue on my device?

Issue 2: Library Update and Replacement (libgstvideo-1.0.so.0.1405.0)

Additionally, I have been working on updating libraries as part of my troubleshooting process. Specifically, I downloaded the libgstvideo-1.0.so.0.1405.0 library with a fix from the NVIDIA site and replaced the default OSS library on my Jetson device using the following command:

$ sudo cp ~/libgstvideo-1.0.so.0.1405.0 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libgstvideo-1.0.so.0.1405.0

After doing so, I checked the library installation with ls -l and confirmed that the file was replaced successfully, but I am still facing some issues with performance.

Could anyone provide guidance on how to resolve these issues? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Hi fst19021,

Are you using the devkit or custom board for Jetson Nano?

For Issue 1, please check your network access first and run the following commands to check if they could help.

$ sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
$ sudo apt clean
$ sudo apt update

Please share the link where do you get the instructions to do so.
And, what performance issue do you have?
