Using the same Ubuntu 16.04 desktop that I installed JetPack 3.0 on, which installed without any problems. When I try to install 3.1, it hangs at installing VisionWorks and will not go any further. Error message is error code 1.
tail of visionworks_host.log shows (and I don’t know what that reference to security.xenail… is about):

Go back generations prior to this old generation, 16.04? I’ve got too much software and time involved in this 16.04 – which I didn’t even want but only installed because y’all said it was needed for the TX2.
PLEASE buy back my TX2. I’ll find another platform for collision avoidance on my drone.
JetPack 3.0 has problems. Now, 3.1 is supposed to fix 3.0 but has even MORE problems than 3.0.
Thanks, but I am burnt out on trying to solve all the MINOR problems that prevent me from using this $600 product, the TX2. I’d be happy if nVidia will just buy it back. Several months time, and so many man-hours wasted fiddling with this non-standard unit that I had such high hopes for. I’m done.
Plus, having to “reset my password” every time I login, makes me really wonder about nVidia’s overall quality.
And btw, my recommendations carry significant weight with hundreds of units to be purchased, like the US Army…
I have installed JetPack 3.0 and JetPack 3.1 in my TX2, but the default is JetPack 3.0, I don’t know how to remove JetPack 3.0 or set JetPack 3.1 as default.
Yep, tried your suggestion and did it again this morning. Neither apt nor apt-get showed any updates available, so everything from Ubuntu 16.04.2 is current. note: when I first got the TX2, I tried Ubuntu 17 latest and greatest. But JetPack 3.0 completely broke in 17, so that time was wasted. Then I saw the fine print that you wanted 14 or 16, so I tried 16.04 and 3.0 loaded just fine. 3.1, not so much.
Started 3.1 install again, and while it did download and install some of the new packages prior to VisionWorks, it died on VisionWorks (VW) with the exact same error message and nothing below it could be gotten to in the script, and I’m not sure how your script package interdependencies are written so I can’t comment out just the VW package so everything can try to install.
We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Could you the following command and re-install it again?
[i]After flashing the device using Ubuntu 16.04 on the host machine and rebooting, unable to install software applications from the Ubuntu Application Center.
To workaround:
Change the group ownership from lighdm to messagebus for the following file:
/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper[c/ode]
The commands are as follows:
[code]$ ls -l /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root lightdm 38824 Jul 12 18:17 /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper
sudo chown root:messagebus /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemonlaunch-helper
sudo chmod 4754 /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper
Note: NVIDIA supports Ubuntu 14.04 as the host operating system.[/i]
This information is from our release note, issue 200276225.
14.04 is 2.5.2-1ubuntu2.8 [security]: amd64 i386
and 16.04 is 2.6.1-0.1ubuntu2.3 [security]: amd64 i386
I am not sure which version is really need for 14.04 because I only tried 16. While I was searching for the correct version I found one link to a launchpad site with the right version provided as debfile. I am not sure if I am allowed to provide it here but it can easily be found.
After installing that manually, visionworks installed and works for me.
