Just rip out the bit you need. Shove it on the device. Run it in the way I have shown.
May need to punch a hole in your firewall for port 5900.


I'll think about turning that into a button then.
Ok.. I took the plunge..

Created new folder /mnt/us/extensions/x11vnc
Copied the folders bin and kindle-lib from x11vnc.tar.gz(attached to your referred post) to /mnt/us/extensions/x11vnc
ran kterm
did cd /mnt/us/extensions/x11vnc/bin
did LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mnt/us/extensions/x11vnc/kindle-lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
didn't touch any firewall -- i have not installed the BBB thing
did ./x11vnc
some stuff came up on kterm window..
then, from my ubuntu linux box vncd into kindle through USB..
it worked.. was able to see identical screen on pc..
....
but.. pc keystrokes were not recognised.. also kterm stopped responding..

disconnected usb.. restarted kterm and kual..

kterm came up.. but keyboard still not responding..

restarted kindle.. now kterm behaving normal..
....
what did i miss out..?
