You need the IMP.mpi module to use MPI (and you have to run IMP via mpirun). We don't include this in the regular binary package because we don't want to force everybody to install an MPI library just to use IMP, and there are multiple MPI libraries to choose from. But on Fedora you can simply install the IMP-mpich RPM which includes the IMP.mpi module built against MPICH, and then it should work. We don't currently include a similar package for Ubuntu, but it probably wouldn't be that hard to add one for future releases.
