Since the Ubuntu ARM Team provides the populated Linux distribution for the ARM architecture, also the i.MX53 is supported.

Bluetechnix has created two SD card images for the CM-i.MX53 with '''Ubuntu versions'''
*'''10.04 (Lucid)'''
*'''11.10 (Oneiric)'''
for demonstrational purposes.

These images are based on the Bluetechnix Linux BSP release 1.5, so U-Boot boot loader and Linux kernel are taken from the BSP, and the root file system is taken from Ubuntu/ARM.

'''''NOTE: Ubuntu 11.10 assumes a newer kernel than we have. Keep that in mind if you experience problems. Also, the Freescale-provided extra packages are partly incompatible with 11.10.'''''

== Downloads ==
FTP URL:
:https://support.becom-group.com/releases/imx/mx53/ubuntu/

Files:
*cmimx53-rel1.5-ubuntu10.04-sdcard-image.bin.bz2 (bzip2-compressed 10.04 SD card image)
*cmimx53-rel1.5-ubuntu11.10-sdcard-image.bin.bz2 (bzip2-compressed 11.10 SD card image)
*ubuntu-freescale-pkgs.tar (Debian packages to be installed for i.MX5x processors, delivered by Freescale)

== Setup instructions ==
#You need an SDHC card with a minimum size of 4 GB. The images have a size of 3,500,000,000 bytes, so it should fit on any available 4GB card. We recommend a really fast one, maybe [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#Speed_Class_Ratingclass 10].
#You need a Linux system with an SD card writer.
#Download the selected image and decompress it: '''bunzip2 <image.bin.bz2>'''
#Decompressing will leave you the file ''image.bin''.
#Plug in the SD card
#If the automounter automatically mounts the SD card, unmount it. Check with '''mount'''.
#Find out the SD card block device file, e.g. by entering '''dmesg''' after inserting the card. On most PCs, it is either ''sdx'' (last letter varies!) or ''mmcblk6'' (number varies!).
#Write the image to the SD card (this makes a bit-wise copy): '''sudo dd if=<image.bin> of=/dev/sdx bs=10M'''
#To be on the safe side, do a '''sync'''
#The SD card is ready!
#Put it in your i.MX53 base board and adjust boot mode settings ([[Linux BSP customization for DEV-i.MX53#Boot modes|DEV-i.MX53]], [[Linux BSP customization for Argos®2D A100 Camera#Boot modes|Argos®2D A100 Camera]])
#Supply power to your board, and switch it on if necessary.

We recommend to connect
*Wide screen monitor via HDMI-to-DVI cable
*USB mouse
*USB keyboard
*Speakers/Headphone (not available on Argos®2D A100)
*Ethernet (If DHCP is available, Ubuntu will use it)

==Passwords==
Ubuntu 10.04 image:
:Default user: lucid
:Password: lucid

Ubuntu 11.10 image:
:Default user: oneiric
:Password: oneiric

The root account is disabled as usual in Ubuntu. You can gain root rights by using ''sudo'' and supplying the user's password.

==Boot configuration==
To adjust boot parameters, please read and follow the following instructions:
*If you have a consumer CM-i.MX53, i.e. CM-i.MX53-C-C-xxx, your CPU is able to run at 1GHz. Default is 800MHz. Read [[Linux BSP customization for CM-i.MX53#ARM core clock|here]].
*Depending on your base board, read [[Linux BSP customization for Argos®2D A100 Camera#U-Boot/Linux kernel configuration|here for Argos®2D A100 Camera]] and [[Linux BSP customization for DEV-i.MX53#Linux kernel configuration|here for DEV-i.MX53]] respectively.

==Tested features==

*Video playback with Totem video player (which uses the GStreamer framework, which in turn uses the i.MX53 hardware video processing unit to decode the video)
*Audio output for video playback
*Recording from camera ISM-MT9M131 with gst-launch tool and mfw_v4lsrc source plug-in
*GPU-accelerated X11 applications (e.g. es11ex, simple_draw)
**'''This does not work in Ubuntu 11.10'''
*SATA drive access
*USB mouse
*USB keyboard
*USB flash disk

=== Bluetechnix basis ===
*The basis for the Ubuntu images is '''cmimx53-sdcard-image-1.5.bin''', we take the boot loader, kernel image, and kernel modules from there.
*Kernel modules (/lib/modules/2.6.35.3rel1.5-g11d821a) are copied to the Ubuntu root file system.

=== Ubuntu basis ===
The Ubuntu root file system comes from:
*File '''lucid_1108.tar.gz''' from Freescale web site, https://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=i.MX535&nodeId=018rH3ZrDR988D&fpsp=1&tab=Design_Tools_Tab
*File '''ubuntu-11.10-preinstalled-desktop-armel+mx5.img''' from Ubuntu/ARM web site, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/MX5
