Ubuntu version for SDK Manager with Jetpack 6.2.1

I’ve been using Ubuntu 24.04 for several months now flashing my Orin Nano happily. Today I downloaded/installed Jetpack 6.2.1 and when I try to select Jetpack 6.2.1 for the SDK Version, is says not “Not available for host” where about 30 minutes earlier it was fine with JP 6.2.

Do I really need have 22.04 installed instead?

Based on the provided context, it appears that you are experiencing an issue with selecting JetPack 6.2.1 as the SDK version on your Jetson Orin Nano device, which was previously working with JetPack 6.2.

According to the “How to Get Started?” section, the software requirements for Jetson Orin Nano include:

  • JetPack 6.2/Jetson Linux 36.4.3
  • Jetson Platform services 2.0

Additionally, the “Hardware Requirements” section mentions that a Ubuntu 20.04 or 22.04 Desktop/Laptop is required.

In your case, you have been using Ubuntu 24.04, which is not explicitly mentioned as a supported version in the provided context. It is possible that the issue you are experiencing is due to the fact that Ubuntu 24.04 is not a supported version for JetPack 6.2.1.

To resolve this issue, you may need to install Ubuntu 22.04, which is a supported version, as mentioned in the “Hardware Requirements” section. This would ensure that your host machine meets the software requirements for Jetson Orin Nano and JetPack 6.2.1.

In comparison, the previous version of JetPack (6.2) may have been compatible with Ubuntu 24.04, but it appears that JetPack 6.2.1 has stricter requirements and only supports Ubuntu 22.04.

Therefore, to answer your question, it is likely that you need to have Ubuntu 22.04 installed instead of Ubuntu 24.04 to use JetPack 6.2.1 with your Jetson Orin Nano device.
