I am currently using pegasus xavier and moved the unit from QNX to Linux 5.2.6 release and i see that the display is not functional. I made sure to force write wipe persistent partitions. when i try to enable display/gui by installing gdm3 or ubuntu unity desktop I see the following error

vidia@tegra-ubuntu:~$ sudo apt install gdm3

After wiping and flashing the system, what else commands were issued prior to this one? Does the package installation work fine on Xavier B?

3

I did sudo apt-get update , before issuing this command.
How can i check if Xavier B is working right ? Can you provide me input on what is the network path between the 2 ?

4

You can access Xavier B from A with 10.42.0.28 IP address or refer to Accessing the SoC from UART.

5

Ok vick this package installation fails on Xavier B as well

6

Does “sudo apt update” work well?

I see that it fails too as well

hi Vick any inputs on this ?

9

Are you accessing via ssh connection? Is the network available on the system? Please clarify why update doesn’t work first.

10

Yes the access is via ssh connection. If i try to update some other dependent packages i am able to update. Also i am able to send driveworks tar file over network to the board. . So network is not an issue at all

11

Hi Vick,
The only thing i can think of that i did not enable the secureboot during the configuration time . Will that cause any issue ?

12

It seems due to time zone issues. Please make sure your system has the correct time first.

13

Vick,
Is there any command to set the timezone on xavier ? I dont see the timedatectl doesnt list any other timezone than UTC.

14

i tried to update the time to set using the ntp and i still see the same issue

I’m not sure what’s the mechanism behind apt/apt-get. But does the “date” command output the correct time for you?

16

Please try to update after setting the local date and time as below.
$ sudo ntpdate time.google.com
$ sudo apt update

17

Thanks Vick, I played with the network to get the right UTC time and it solved all the issues. we can mark this close
