Kindle As your raspberry pi monitor

I could mod my Kindle so I can now use it as screen for the RaspberryPi. KindleberryPi makes it possible to have a terminal only, but with my guide you can use it as a complete screen!

How-To for Kindle 4 NT:

1) jailbreak your Kindle: http://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle4NTHacking#Jailbreak
2) install USBNetwork: http://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle4NTHacking#SSH
3) install KindleVNC viewer: http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=150434
4) now you can connect to your Kindle (the root password doesn't exist, you can type anything) by doing 

CODE: SELECT ALL

sudo ifconfig usb0 192.168.15.2
ssh root@192.168.15.244

5) start the vnc viewer with

CODE: SELECT ALL

/mnt/us/kindlevncviewer/kvncviewer.sh 192.168.15.2:0 &

6) to autostart the Kindle's viewer once the Pi boots up, link to this script (you need to have sshpass and x11vnc installed!):

CODE: SELECT ALL

sudo ifconfig usb0 192.168.15.2
sudo x11vnc -scale 800x600 -display :0 &
sleep 8
sshpass -p asdf ssh root@192.168.15.244 /mnt/us/kindlevncviewer/kvncviewer.sh 192.168.15.2:0 &

with

CODE: SELECT ALL

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Exec=/home/pi/kindlestart.sh

from ~/.config/autostart/kindlestart.desktop (create the folder if it doesn't exist).

Happy hacking!
