Just some quick notes of one (not particularly elegant) way of including a Kindle K5 into the multi-monitor setup.
First order of business: Jailbreak and get networking running.
The mobilereader wiki explains it all. I installed (as per instructions) Jailbreak, KUAL, mrpackages, and USBNetworking.
Then, on the Kindle itself, a decently setup Linux is already waiting to be comandeered:
[root@kindle root]# initctl stop x [root@kindle root]# Xorg +bs -verbose -noreset main % ssh usbhost ssh -L6000:127.0.0.1:6000 root@192.168.15.244 main % ssh -R 5900:localhost:5900 usbhost DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0 vncviewer FullScreen=0 geometry=600x800+0+0 localhost:5900 [root@kindle root]# while sleep 2; do eips -g .; done
