Cannot install Mipi driver on Jetson Nano with JetPack 4.4

The instructions to get going with the Jetvariety camera boards (UC-599) doesn't work on a brand new Jetson Nano with the latest downloaded SD card image. See below.

Hi @sputnick ,
Currently the deb installation package of Mipi driver on Jetson Nano only supports L4T32.3.1 which is JetPack 4.3. We are adapting L4T32.4.2, which will be completed in the next few days.

Hi @sputnick ,
We have updated the support of L4T32.4.2 in commit 462c762, please check it.

Hi @glddiv,
Firstly thanks for fast development. But there is a problem on new support.

Hi @gokhankucukayan ,
It looks like nvidia has two versions of l4t32.4.2 sd card image, the version I installed is 4.9.140-tegra-32.4.2-20200428140713.
Can you send me the download link of the sd card image you installed?

Hi @glddiv again,
Sorry, there is no link. I installed through sdk-manager with usb boot cable. But in sdk manager my choice was "JetPack 4.4 DP" through target operating system.

Hi @glddiv again,

I simply changed the dependency from nvidia-l4t-kernel (= 4.9.140-tegra-32.4.2-20200428140713) to nvidia-l4t-kernel (= 4.9.140-tegra-32.4.2-20200408182156), I have not Test it, if you want to try to install it, it is recommended that you make a data backup. After installing the deb package, the kernel and device tree files will be replaced.
