Jetson TK1 booting issues


Received my Jetson TK1 yesterday. After unboxing it and configuring the Linux GUI, rebooting the device with a mouse (cordless) attached to its USB 3.0 port takes it to some sort of Command line page where it probably loads some files and then the screen starts printing " [ . ] ". Nothing happens beyond that until I restart the board without any USB peripheral and then the device boots into the normal Linux GUI. Unable to figure out what's wrong with my board and why is it not working properly.(I am a newbie to LINUX)

P.S.: Connecting the monitor via HDMI after switching on the device gives no visual output, just a blank screen. Is it possible to connect the device via network adapter for remote access even it the screen is running blank?


Solution

  • The question is quite old, but as some people might get frustrated with it, I'll provide the answer for most probable cause.

    Upgrading the board running 19.X release causes libglx.so to be corrupted. The issue have been actively discussed on NVIDIA forums and the best way to solve it is to upgrade to 21.X.

    Otherwise, you can try recovering the libglx.so in the usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/ from Tegra124_Linux_R19.3.0_armhf.tbz2.
