Hi all, I’m trying to get an Arducam imx219 working on a Jetson Orin NX. When I run install_full.sh it fails with “not finding available download link” and the camera never comes up after that. Has anyone hit this before?
Hey, could you share a bit more about your setup? Which JetPack release and exact board are you running this on? That error can show up for a few different reasons, so a little more detail would help narrow it down.
Sure. I’ve got an Orin AGX with JetPack 6 where the imx219 driver is now working fine. The failing board is the Orin NX. The NX is listed in the supported modules list, so I expected install_full.sh to handle it there too, but it just throws “not finding available download link”.
Thanks. Could you also grab the kernel version and the Jetson type string from the working AGX? I’d like to compare which config path each board is actually taking.
From the earlier working setup, here’s what I captured: Kernel version 5.15.136-tegra-36.3.0-20240424200557, Jetson type: NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin Developer Kit.
That’s helpful. There’s actually a subtle but important difference between the AGX Orin and the Orin NX when it comes to configuring the imx219 camera driver, so I’m not surprised the same script behaves differently on the two boards.
To restate what you’re reporting: the imx219 driver is working fine on the Orin AGX with JetPack 6, but on the Orin NX install_full.sh fails with “not finding available download link”.
The root cause is the different configuration requirements between the AGX Orin and the Orin NX for the imx219 camera driver. The NX doesn’t follow the same configuration path as the AGX.
Instead of relying on install_full.sh, try configuring the imx219 camera driver by following the steps in the Arducam Jetson-IO application note. The Orin NX needs that Jetson-IO configuration approach.
Here’s the link: Jetson-io - Arducam Wiki — go through the steps there for the NX and see if the driver comes up.
Thanks. Quick status update: install_full.sh still fails on the Orin NX with “not finding available download link”. I’ll go through the Jetson-IO steps from the link you posted and report back.
To summarize the current conclusion: for now, skip install_full.sh on the Orin NX. The imx219 driver works on the AGX with JetPack 6, but the NX has different configuration requirements, so the workaround is to configure it using the Jetson-IO application note steps. Please let us know whether the camera gets detected after you go through those steps.
