demo stuck on "" with fan running full speed #1

hi

I have followed the install steps and launched the demo. I click enter after the first echo prompt and I got stuck on the terminal with message "Launching DeepStream Container". No error message, no further echo, nothing, just the fan running full steam. After 5 min I just rebooted my Xavier NX devkit. I have a 500 M2 SSD, did setup the swap file to 32G as instructed. My docker data are under /media/username/SSD folder.

Now I do not have a USB headset with microphone but I was willing to run the demo anyway. Could that be the reason?

thanks for your help.

Have you checked to see if it is downloading the container images? They can take quite a while to download if you don't have them already.

I think I am good with the docker data, I retrieved them all and then transferred the content on my M.2 drive under a "docker folder" (/media/username/SSD/docker) Here is the docker folder properties: docker_files

Could the demo take more than 2 or 3 minutes to load? I killed it after 5 min but not sure if I should try longer. I I want to investigate, is there a log file somwhere or do I need to add my own debugging tags to track where this issue is exactly?

The scripts hide the docker pull commands. The demo takes 3 minutes for me with "MODE 15W 6CORE" and all images fully downloaded. I think it took over 20 minutes the first time and I'm running a 970 Pro NVMe.

Ok so I got the demo working fine, quite impressive and running pretty fast vs other deepnet model inferences not as optimized.

So I think there is a slight glitch in the readme instructions, where it says: sudo ln -s /home/nvidia/nvme/docker /var/lib/docker I think it should say: sudo ln -s /home/nvidia/nvme/docker /var/lib/

So basically my symlink for the SSD docker data was not where the code was expecting it to be I think. I had to move my already existing /var/lib/docker folder (with root privilege), then execute sudo ln -s /yourM2SSDpath/docker /var/lib/ to create the proper shortcut. Let me know if I am missing something here, otherwise pls tweak/clarify the readme please for others.

thanks for your replies and for the superb demo.
