I have searched forum and internet for a solutin, but I do not see one. I have recompiled and reinstall drivers, but still have an issue with hailortcli error output.

I understand that Ubuntu Server 25.04 is not yet support, but I am looking for a solution. I have my home lab running on Ubuntu Server 25.04 on RPIs (3,4,5). My goal is to have my Frigate and Homeassistant RPI5 integrated with Hailo. I would appreciate any guidance. Please let me know if additional information is needed.

After a nights sleep, its a new day. I decided to recompile hailort drivers. I uses the same git clone, but I made sure to change the branch using: bit switch hailo8. I recomipiled and reinstalled per Hailo install from source instruction.

~/src/hailort$ cmake -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DHAILOR_BUILD_EXAMPLES=1 && sudo cmake --build build --config release --target install

Success!. hailortcli
