Hi!

I have a Kindle 3 Wi-Fi (running 3.4.2 firmware) and trying to get KPV on it. As I understood, I should use legacy KPV instead of newer KOReader. So I have jailbrake, Launchapd, KUAL and KVP (build nightly-20130708 from Jul 8, 2013).

In Kual I have the KPDF entry, but the problem is that whatever item I choose (start in documents or open the last document), the result is the same: nothing really happens. The Kindle seems to be busy with something a bit and then I am back in stock selection of files.

If I press SHIFT-P-D, then I see ^[P D] at the bottom of the screen, then a message "Success!", but nothing more.

I also installed KOReader and have an entry for it in KUAL, but this gives me the same results: nothing is launching.

Any suggestions on how I can get it to work? Thanks!
