ln -s libjpeg.so libjpeg.so.62
and in vain hope of being successful, finally I got the following error:

Code:
ufbvncd: open_device> cannot open framebuffer device "/dev/fb/0"
ufbvncd: startup> cannot open device
which I guess confirms what geekmaster said about framebuffer difference between KT and other Kindles here.

So, is there anyway we can have VNC server on Touch?
/dev/fb/0 was an alias for /dev/fb0 that does not exist on newer kindles. Replace /dev/fb/0 with /dev/fb0 and you are golden, but you still have the "bits-per-pixel" and "line_length" details you must deal with. In a script, you can use eips -i|grep ... to extract that information. You can look at these scripts for examples:
