All,
It was found that the ubuntu-desktop is a bit memory hungry on this i.MX53
QuickStart board. There is a large chunk of memory being reserved for the
graphics/video drivers, and the memory size reserved has to consider the
worst case. And we have to live with this before the unified memory allocator
is available.
I don't yet have a /proc/meminfo after system is right up, I'll get some
statistics a bit later. However, I do want to know if we have some memory
footprint evaluation of the existing ubuntu-desktop (we are using unity-2d)?
And what can we do to improve on that?

Hi,
notes and actions from our Wednesday graphics working group call are
available on the wiki:

Details about when and where of this meeting can be found here:

Summary
=======
* cairo-gles2
* Ported cairo-clock and cairogears to cairo-gles2.
* Uploaded gles2 enabled packages for cairo, cairogears and cairo-clock to ppa:linaro-graphics-wg/ppa
* Validated on OMAP4 (cairogears/cairoclock don't use any the repeat functionality missing in GL_IMG_texture_npot).
* Benchmarks
* Spandex unix-x11 branch merged in current upstream development tree.
* Found issue with glcompbench rendering on ARM (coding error due to working with Mesa GLES spec violation - bug to be filed).
* GLproxy - packages pushed to graphics working group ppa.
* DRM/Mali - new Mali device driver drop (released 2011-04-01) integrated into git repository on git.linaro.org.
* compiz work basically done (modulo some bug fixing), nux work underway.
Thanks,

In the Linaro set up u-boot will look for uImage (and not for kernel).
This patch is Linaro specific and should not be contibuted to AOSP.
