ZED Box Mini and Ubuntu 24.04 support

Software ROS2

Hi,

I am facing some issues using the ZED Box Mini with ROS2 Jazzy. One of the problems is the support for installing Ubuntu 24.04 and running ROS2 Jazzy natively.

Previously, I tried to run ROS2 Jazzy through a Docker container using a devcontainer, but I encountered some library versioning issues when using the Docker image jazzy-desktop-r36.4.0-cu128-24.04.

I had problems installing all the dependencies of the ROS2 ZED Wrapper for Jazzy, as well as enabling multicast communication for ROS2 Jazzy.

Therefore, through this post, I would like to ask for a clean solution to use ROS2 Jazzy on the ZED Box Mini.

Hi @affonsoviccari-plx,

As the Ubuntu version is tied to the Jetpack version, you cannot easily upgrade to another without upgrading Jetpack.

As of today, Nvidia does not support Jetpack 7 (which comes with Ubuntu24) for the Orin module, so the easiest way of having support is to use the images for L4T36.4 as you’ve been doing here.

If you have specific log errors, we can take a look and see what may be the issue.
