Jetpack 5.1 is the latest production release of NVIDIA's jetson family, and compared to Jetpack 5.0, it adds support for the Jetson Orin NX 16GB development module. Not only that, it still supports Jetson AGX Orin 32GB development module, Jetson AGX Orin developer suite, Jetson AGX Xavier series, Jetson Xavier NX series. But it should be noted that Jetpack 5.1 does not support Jetson nano and Jetson TX2 nx!
Jetpack5.1 has Jetson Linux 35.2.1, CUDA 11.4.19, TensorRT 8.5.2, cuDNN 8.6.0, VPI 2.2, OpenCV 4.5.4, Vulkan 1.3, and Nsight Systems 2022.5, Nsight Systems 2022.6, Nsight DLD/Compute 2022.2 and other software stacks. There are also enhancements to OTA as well as camera, multimedia and display capabilities.
If you want to know the introduction of specific Jetpack5.1 version can refer to this document at https://docs.nvidia.com/jetson/archives/r35.2.1/ReleaseNotes/Jetson_Linux_Release_Notes_r3 5.2.1. PDF
But here are a few parts I hope you can pay attention to:
1、For the Jetson Xavier NX Developer Kit, the minimum memory when swiping the full JetPack SDK onto an SD card is 64GB
2、The bug with the 2 Lane 1 C9 controller not working has been fixed in JetPack5.1/3、When problems occur in the case of continuous upgrades, the best approach is to simply rebrush the machine.
3、After the first reboot in the process of brushing, if Jetson has no network, it will take 4 minutes for the initial picture to be displayed. This problem can be accelerated by connecting the network cable.
4、Since Cuda-nvpro-11.4 has been modified in JetPack 5.0.1, the task will fail if you have previously installed CUDA 11.1.14 on Jetpack 5.0.1 or earlier when updated via the apt upgrade command.
