The following table shows the current version information of the software packages provided in the NVIDIA and Ubuntu repositories for the NVIDIA IGX Software Stack.

Base OS:

• Canonical signed Kernel 5.15.1012

• Support for NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada

• Resizing BAR1 address range for dGPU

• PXE BaseOS installation support

BMC:

• Flashing IGX firmware, including BMC, QSPI and MCU from the BMC Web UI

• Redfish API support

Base OS:

• More than 48 decode streams of h265 videos causes XID errors on RTX A6000.

• Currently, System Deep Sleep(SC7) is not supported due to known software issues.

• Resuming from S3 suspend might cause FPS drop on OGL applications with dGPUs.

• If BaseOS was previously installed on the NVMe and gets installed on eMMC as well, two identical UEFI Boot Manager entries are present.

• The Realtek 8168 driver does not work when the kernel command line option ‘pcie_bus_perf’ is specified. The Ethernet interface no longer gets an IP address.

• Some Vulkan features are not supported on dGPU.

• When disconnecting and/or reconnecting Ethernet cables the Network Manager might delay notifications for these events by several minutes.

• When installing BaseOS for iGPU, in some cases the installer does not automatically reboot the system after finshing the installation. A manual restart must be initiated.

• dGPU ECC mode does not persist after reboot.

• Currently, secure Boot on Tegra is not supported.

• HTTP boot for PXE is not functional.

BMC:

• Configuring the IP address through the Web UI is not reliably functional. It might leave your BMC unreachable. Do not use at this point and use the ipmitool instead.

• The Web UI Server Power Operations orderly function not reliably functional. Use the BMC commandline instead.

• The Web UI MCU firmware version information not available.

• The Web UI allows flashing the QSPI package even though Tegra is not powered on. This does not work.

• The Web UI does not properly flash the CX7 firmware. An alternative method should be used.

• The BMC cannot change the boot order of UEFI through ipmitool.

• Refresh notification does not refresh the Web UI after FW updates.

• Some flashing and error notifications in the Web UI are not accurate. The flashing of QSPI and MCU might take longer than the notification suggests.

• If the power is disconnected during an BMC FW update, the BMC is left in an unrecoverable state.

• EROT BMC FW rollback protection has not been activated. It is possible to roll-back to older FW versions.

MCU:

• Tj temperature warning is set to 70C resulting in potentially higher temperatures to the touch of the device. This affects safety systems mostly because all clocks are set to the fixed maximum setting. This might already happen during/after boot.
