[@417_arka9]

I don't understand why people are making this a big deal. NVIDIA has been releasing Jetson edge computing platforms for the past four years. As part of my PhD research, I initially used the Jetson Nano with 2GB RAM before transitioning to the AGX Orin developer kit. The only thing changed is that it is way more powerful with higher cores and more RAM. Way more versatile and user friendly than raspberry pi.

[@pvim]

finally a sensible comment, these people think Nvidia just makes GPU's for their video games. I have also used a ton of jetsons in my UAV projects and they are wonderful.

[@gabrielnilo6101]

I once had a Jetson board. It's a great development board... when NVIDIA doesn't unexpectedly stop supporting it.

[@JesusDelgaCI]

I used one a few weeks ago, I can't deny that it's great for its purpose and that NVIDIA provides a working single board computer out of the box compared to other ARM SBC vendors. The catch is that the OS gets older over time and NVIDIA doesn't seem to care, the one I used was a Jetson Nano stuck in ubuntu 18.04 so I had to update to 20.04 breaking some packages along the way but it went smooth after 2 attempts. The biggest catch is that for every Jetson board the GPU kernel modules and NVIDIA libraries are closed source and tied to a particular patched kernel, in my case 4.9-tegra ; meaning the GPU drivers cannot be recompiled hence the kernel cannot be updated to a newer/different version while maintaining the full GPU capabilities provided by the closed source driver. Only kernel versions from 6.x provide compatibility for the Jetson Nano, but they require the kernel to use some GPU drivers called 'Open Source Drivers'. Also most of their most technical documentation is confusing or it's missing. I wouldn't call that thing a development board, it's just a single board computer with a powerful GPU.

[@reverse_engineered]

While nvidia's drivers have been crap for desktop gaming usage, their hardware accelerators have always worked well for me and are very easy to install. I've used a Volta Quadro for years at work for developing GPU accelerated engineering software and we recently upgraded to an RTX 4090. Nearly the entire AI world runs on NVIDIA cards on Linux machines, mainly the A100 and H100. They work flawlessly. I guess that's the difference with whether they are supporting a niche desktop market or a trillion dollar cloud computing market.

[@xpusostomos]

Are you saying graphics on consumer laptops and desktops is a niche market? If that was true, they'd give up and release open source Linux drivers, because hey, who cares, it's just a little niche part of their company.

I use the proprietary drivers, not nouveau but it supports my laptops rtx, no problem and I get the same frame rates I'd expect on windows, good experience with my old laptop using a gtx960m as well. I'm not sure if the issue with gaming on linux under Nvidia is overblown or I've just been lucky or if it goes back to Nvidia not supporting the open source Nouveau drivers..

In fact just a year after than middle finger from Linus he openly praise nvidia and give his tumbs up on the effort nvidia has done with tegra linux support. I think this is also why Switch emulator able to come out just a few months of Switch release because tegra chips are very well known in linux world.
