Who at TI recommended Ubuntu? For TI support, use the Processor SDK (Yocto). 
For the best support from this community, use Robert's Debian images used by 
most of the community. For Ubuntu community support, and some limited BB 
community support, use Ubuntu. 

Some Debian examples are old, but if you follow the "smart questions" 
guidelines, I think we can solve the challenge together without wasting too 
much of your time.
