Overview

The CM-QS600 Linux kernel is based on the Snapdragon 600 Linux Platform Ubuntu-based 14.09 release by Linaro. The example run-time Linux filesystem image for CM-QS600 is based on Debian GNU/Linux Wheezy. The CompuLab Linux package for CM-QS600 includes ready to run root filesystem demo archive, Linux kernel configuration and source code patches.

The default Debian Wheezy Linux image includes more than 400 software packages. Among them:

  • Core system
  • Debian package management system
  • X11 Windowing System
  • Fluxbox desktop manager
  • Iceweasel browser
  • Samba connectivity suite
  • SSH server and client
  • ALSA configuration and usage utilities
  • Bluetooth tools and daemons

The CM-QS600: Linux: Getting started page provides a brief introduction on how to install the run-time Linux image.

Using Debian Linux on CM-QS600

Connection and Logging In

Use the following username and password to login:

Account with administrative privileges:

cm-debian login: root
Password: 111111

Regular user account:

cm-debian login: user	
Password: 111111
