Hi Hawhill,
just wanted to bounce this idea, please provide your valuable comments:

I have not seen your code and not much familiar with low level stuff but I assume at a high level that current code takes the pixel info from x-window system and on kindle side render it on e-ink screen.

I was thinking of one enhancement if its possible/feasable to implement:
See on e-ink monitor one does not care of videos or picture or colors or size of windows/menus/shapes. Only text is important. So if some program/driver can take pc screen info, and converts it into a very simple text based gui windows...and then sends those simplified pixels to kindle to show. It will be very less info and should show very clean and fast on kindle. The large pc screen can be scaled to 6 or 9 inch screen, still showing text info nicely.

Now I am not sure where this code will interface with OS, but it has to be somewhere at graphics driver level (before x-window info is converted into pixels)

Do you (or anyone in this forum with knowledge of low level graphics stuff) comment if this is possible and what all would be needed to code this?

Thanks a lot,
Sohel
