I flashed the downloaded images of linux for IMX536 ARD (Rev B) board into the MicroSD, but when boot up and login as root, fail to bring up the X & Matchbox as shown below:
[iMX56 ARD via USB Serial Cable]

*This iMX53 QSB is tested OK and working fine using the Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) MicroSD previously. So its VGA Port, Cable and the LCD Monitor is OK.
* It show same error message even after exporting DISPLAY=:0
I advise you to test the Yocto Project build as it has several bugfixes included on top of original LTIB BSP.
Are you using the latest BSP available?
There are a couple of thread that have the same problem as you have, please take a look at them and let me know if you are still experiencing problems...
