Only 4 years have passed. Not 8. I'm an end user,that's how I count. I may agree that,generally speaking, 4 years are enough,but this is not always true. The Jetson nano is today a good product in relation to cost / benefit ratio for a lot of users that don't need to buy the new Jetson Orin. What I care about (and not only for me) is to enable the graphic stack with some decent new linux distro. Nvidia supports only Ubuntu 18,that's the end of life. I've been criticized in the ubuntu forums for asking for help solving some technical problems with ubuntu 18. The developers tried hard to convince me that they weren't called to help me with a distro that went EOL. I insisted that I had to, because nVidia only supports 18.04. So they told me that they have no relationship with nVidia and they don't give a damn. This kind of treatment of the end user who has made money and loves an operating system is unacceptable. I have upgraded Ubuntu 18.04 to 22.04 on the Jetson nano. Everything works ok,but not the graphic stack because I'm not able to install CUDA 11. The nVidia developers say that only Orin supports it. So,should I spend more money to buy Orin ? I don't think so. Because I think that CUDA 11 is not supported on the Nano not 'cause insurmountable technical problems,but because of the business plans of nvidia. Business plans that aren't compatible with my finances. With the finances of a lot of end / hobbyist users. >> >> On Fri, May 12, 2023 at 2:13 PM Peter Robinson <pbrobinson@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>> >>> Hi Mario, >>> >>> > I dont hide my interest in the installation of fedora on the Jetson nano.
