kindle kt4 ssh into linux

hi there, i'm pretty new around here, in fact just today i got to jailbreak my 10th gen kindle

i mainly got it cuz i wanted to make a little project but i had no luck looking around on the forum, my idea was to use kterm to ssh via wi-fi from the kindle into my linux pc so i can program/write using the e-ink display
if this works i was thinking on getting a rpi4 and make a mini... e-ink type machine(?)

but reading on the forum all i can find is using usbnetwork hack, and it looks like is more for the opposite of what i wanna do, ssh from desktop into kindle
also i tried to even read the reademefirst file and coudlnt understand much, so it scares me a little

there's any other way to do what i want?
as i said above, all i wanna do is just ssh into my desktop, nothing more fancy than that

also sorry for the long post and some errors, english is not my first language and i try to be as explanatory as i can

With usbnetwork installed on the kindle, ssh works both ways.

If you configured your linux pc usbnetwork IP address to 192.168.15.201
and your linux pc username is "me", then from kterm on you kindle, type:
Code:
ssh me@192.168.15.201

You have not installed usbnetwork yet?

It's been years since I installed usbnetwork and I do not remember the details. Just follow the directions exactly.

Yup, just set it up as usual, that'll ensure you can actually get into the Kindle. The other way around will Just Work(TM) (barring authentification woes), since the full client suite is installed by USBNetwork, too.
