I tried to connect nvidia device (sitting in one of plants far away from my laptop) with my laptop with our company network. it shows the error below. Do you know how to fix this issue?
*************************************
Error using nvidiaio.internal.launchServer
Specified user name must belong to the sudoer group.
Error in nvidiaboard/connectToServer
Error in nvidiaboard/initiatePeripheralAccess
Error in nvidiaboard/checkAndGetHardwareConfig
Error in jetson
***********************************
I then went to the file LauchServer.m (under MATLAB\SupportPackages\R2022b\toolbox\target\Supportpackages\nivida\+nvidiaio\+internal\launchServer.m to make the file change below. it worked. Do u see any side effect by making the change?
from
*******************************
userIsSudoer = true; %#ok<NASGU>
userIsSudoer = nvidiacoder.internal.isUserSudoer(obj);
if ~userIsSudoer
error(message('nvidia:utils:UserNotSudoer'));
end
***********

end

Hi @Liwei,
While you were able to workaround the error temporarily by commenting out the code, MATLAB still needs sudo permissions in order to perform tasks such as code execution remotely on the NVIDIA device.
I would recommend adding your username to the sudoers list in the NVIDIA device you are trying to deploy to. Here is an example I found on the web:
You can then revert the change you made to launchServer.m.

Thanks a lot! Directly using the direct display, as suggested by you solved the issue.
Earlier I was using RDP Client (Remote Desktop Connection App).
Best regards
