Error when running Rviz inside the Nvidia docker container

[Shivam7Sharma]

Hi,
I installed the Nvidia runtime container and the Docker container properly following all the instructions but I get the following output when I run Rviz:

rviz2 -d src/isaac_ros_visual_slam/isaac_ros_visual_slam/rviz/default.cfg.rviz
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-admin'

When I run a rosbag file for slam it stops recording data after 5 seconds but rviz stays open.

Nvidia-smi output:

Steps I followed:
Nvidia-container runtime
Quick start

Nvidia-container toolkit

Can anyone help me with this?

Was nvidia-smi run inside the container, or is that just the output from your host machine? If you didn't already, could you please run nvidia-smi inside the container spawned with run_dev.sh, and provide that output? We want to be certain that the container is properly able to access your GPU.

Other things to check:

• Does rviz2 by itself (ie, without using the prepared config file) launch properly?
• Are you able to run the quickstart of any other repo (isaac_ros_apriltag is a lightweight one to test)
• Do the automated tests pass when you run colcon test --executor sequential as described in Quickstart Step 4?

I haven't tried any other repo such as isaac_ros_apriltag. I can do that if it will help with this issue.

[jaiveersinghNV]

Could you confirm the specifications of your host computer? What operating system and version are you using? Are you using WSL?

Running isaac_ros_apriltag's quickstart would be a good debugging step. Please try completing that quickstart and see if you're able to launch the AprilTag graph without any problems.

[Shivam7Sharma]

Is it possible that the ROS bag given in the tutorial is only 5 seconds? Because I can see the map in Rviz but it is there for only like 5 seconds. Let me know.

[jaiveersinghNV]

Yes, we ship a short rosbag to avoid consuming too much storage. Unlike our other tutorials, we can't use the --loop playback mode for Visual SLAM, because the "jump" from the end to the start of the data sequence will lead to degraded performance with our algorithm.

If you need a longer dataset for some other tests, you can always use our R2B Dataset 2023 sequences.

[Shivam7Sharma]

Closing this because the issue is resolved
