Kindle 2 storing failure - Windows Killer
Hello,
I've been using Kindle 2 with Ubuntu 8.04 for 1 month. It isnt completely compatible because of its SYSFS deprecated i think. Ubuntu mounts Kindle 2 but sometimes when copying to device sometimes it was umounted automaticaly. Anyways i've beeing using it and all was right until yesterday. I stored a new mobi ebook and it seems to be all correct but the Kindle 2 umounted. Then i looked in Kindle 2 and all the ebooks and clippings i had were erased. Only Dictionary and Tutorial persisted. I plugged again to computer and documents folder was empty. I've tried again to copy the file and returned and error trying to copy the file. or any other Furthermore i went to one Windows XP computer i had and tried to copy the file. I got a blue screen failure!!!!!!!!!! Error writting in the disk. Alerts it was dumping data and warning me that if thats persists reset and maybe HD is broken. I havent tried to reset Kindle 2 yet. Any idea? Is Kindle 2 a Windows killer? I think i would contact to Amazon support. Thank you very much. |

Problem fixed reseting Kindle2, 20 seconds holding startup button.
Make backups of your book and clippings if your environment with kindle is not really safe. Bye |
