- Go to Settings → Maps Manager
- Download map regions for your area
- Wait for the downloads to complete
- Return to Maps and refresh the page
AI responses are very slow
AI responses are very slow
Local AI inference is computationally intensive. Several factors can affect speed:
- No GPU — CPU-only inference is significantly slower. An NVIDIA GPU with the NVIDIA Container Toolkit can improve AI speed by 10–20x or more. See GPU Acceleration.
- Other apps competing for resources — close applications running on the server that aren’t needed
- Thermal throttling — ensure the server has adequate cooling; overheating causes the CPU or GPU to reduce its speed
- Model size — larger models produce better responses but run slower. Consider switching to a smaller model if speed is a priority.

Document processing takes time, especially for large files.
- Check that the AI Assistant is running in Settings → Apps
- Large documents can take several minutes to process — wait before assuming it’s stuck
- Try uploading a smaller document to confirm the system is working
- Check Settings → System for any error messages

To submit a score to the community leaderboard, all of the following must be true:
- You must run a Full Benchmark — not System Only or AI Only
- The AI Assistant must be installed and working (AI results are required)
- Your score must be higher than any previous submission from the same hardware

The server won't start / can't reach the Command Center
The server won't start / can't reach the Command Center
If you cannot access the Command Center at
http://SERVER_IP:8080 at all:- Verify the server hardware is powered on
- Check that the server is connected to the network
- Try accessing via the server’s IP address directly (instead of a hostname)
- If you have console access, check the Docker container logs for errors

I forgot my Kolibri password
Kolibri manages its own user accounts separately from N.O.M.A.D.
- If you are a Kolibri admin: Reset other users’ passwords from Kolibri’s user management panel
- If you forgot the admin password: You will need to reset it from the command line. Contact your server administrator or refer to the Kolibri documentation for the password reset process.
