You already could simply install both KDE and OpenOffice on Kindle from Debian repositories, but weak CPU and disk space might be a problem. I've seen on Mobileread someone who attached flash drive to Kindle, so it might be possible. I've also seen KDE running on Neo Freerunner - much weaker device than Kindle. Firefox already works on my Paperwhite - it's barely usable, but it works

I'm glad to see progress being made on Xephyr! I'd like to someday do nice, seamless integration with Debian and native desktops, like leaving IM on and accessible while reading, it might be useful for that |

You have to go back at least to before when they adopted armhf as the default (or specify armel). Also ones that use the 2.6.x series kernels. |

Wheezy works, but I ran across two problems:
The games will not launch. Nor the stop x. Also the keyboard is cut of from the bottom as in I can see the top quater of the bottom row of buttons at the bottom of the screen. |

or - Maybe do a custom rebuild from Debian sources to get exactly what matches the Kindle system. or - Maybe finish up KUAL.KualSystem (which is stalled due to lack of developement time). |

I launched twobob's Xephyr instead and it worked.

Any chance of that noob-friendly shell script?
