Anyone successfully launch nsight from the Ubuntu 18.04 host ?
Just wonder if something is wrong with my setup.
Hi sato5312,
Do you mean Nsight Eclipse plugins edition / NVIDIA Nsight Systems / NVIDIA Nsight Graphics ?
Yes
nsight
The NVidia logo came up, turned blank, then just hang there
vs with Jetpack 3.0 on tk1, the whole application launched successfully
Hi,
Do you install Nsight with JetPack4.0?
If not, could you give it a try?
Thanks.
Hi
Thanks for your responds
I think ânsightâ was installed by JetPack4.0, automatically
I expected this special NVidia edition of eclipse will let me connect and debug Cuda apps on the target Xavier
Did I miss something.
I appreciated your help
Thanks
Hi,
Could you share where you launch the Nsight tool?
Please remember that Nsight doesnât support Jetson environment.
You need to launch it on an x86 desktop and cross-compiling the Jetson app.
Thanks.
Hi
I launch nsight from Ubuntu 18.04 on my laptop, which is the host to flash the Xavier module
Thanks
Hi. Same problem.
Iâm on Ubuntu 18.04 and installed with the JetPack 4.0 Early Access.
Iâm familiar with C++ and CUDA but not Linux.
It prompted that an error occurred and to check a log file â.metadata/.logâ which is a hidden file. This may help you. Iâm currently working through it.
Ok, I looked around, and I found a solution for my config:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41068508/cannot-launch-nvidia-nsight
This thread advises the following commands:
sudo apt install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt update
sudo apt install oracle-java8-installer
The install python step did not work, so I skipped it. I originally tried java10 installation since that thread is a little older. That didnât work.
I installed java8 just as suggested, and it did the trick.
Hope this helps!
Hi,
I successfully launch nsight from ubuntu 18.04 after executing the following commands :
1. check if openjdk installed
$ java --version
openjdk 10.0.2 2018-07-17
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 10.0.2+13-Ubuntu-1ubuntu0.18.04.2)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 10.0.2+13-Ubuntu-1ubuntu0.18.04.2, mixed mode)
If nothing showed then
$ sudo apt-get install default-jre
2. config java for jre
$ sudo update-alternatives --config java
There are 2 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).
Selection Path Priority Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java 1101 auto mode
1 /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java 1101 manual mode
[b]2 /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java 1081 manual mode
[/b]
Press to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:
<b> Let select 2 to activate JRE</b>
Good luck
Hi mick.honey and ndnparis
Thanks for sharing your solution
I will try that next
âŠ
OK. I got the âC/C++ - Nsightâ window up
your guys are very helpful
but I am not done yet, until I can step debug one of the cuda example on the module
âŠ
wow, too complicated, not a turn-key task, I will pursuit later
Thanks all.
Nothing of above worked for me. See my link below. I suppose that is still an open issue
CUDA 10
Ubuntu 18.04

Hi, luisgo
Could you share more information with your environment?
Is your host CUDA toolkit installed from JetPack or our website?
And do you have multiple CUDA toolkit installed on your environment?
THanks.
Sorry, somehow I solved the problem.
I do not use JetPack. It is for the RTX2070.
Some setting in BIOS.
Thanks
Luis Gonçalves
The computer has several boot partitions.
My boot partition is only used by me. I done several packages upgrades supposing that was the problem.
Then a colleague put the grub to boot the partitions. I suppose that the Boot Option was âBoot ROMâ and passed to âUEFIâ or both (in BIOS). Perhaps some option in Grub. My Ubuntu was installed with âBoot ROMâ option
I will see later when I have some time
It is not the first time I had this problem
The solution to the problem is in the link below, but basically you have install Java Runtime Environment 8 on your system and launch the nsight with a special command tag as outlined in the nvidia user guide. Hope this helps.

Hi Luis,
What was the setting in BIOS that fixed the problem?
