The most likely cause is that the GPU detection in startmapd isn't properly handling the Jetson. This detection is actually not required anymore now that mapd_server can handle it, so I've removed it.

Could you do a git pull to pick up the new version of startmapd to see if that helps? Commit f694c47.

A second potential cause is not having permission to access the GPU devices, which I've seen happen in older versions of L4T if not using the default user. This is probably not it in your case since the samples work and you're using the default nvidia user.

I get no warnings now. Thanks!
