Hey guys,
This looks to be thread most involving the usbNetwork hack; let me know if I'm posting in the wrong place.
I'm trying to use usbNetwork on my Kindle 3G (firmware 3.0.2), and I've got it successfully installed; the computer I'm using has got xUbuntu 10.04 --
but when I do an "ifconfig usb0" (with or without sudo), it appears my interface only has an ipv6 address. Any ideas? Can I get it to work with ipv6? If so, I have no way of knowing what the kindle's ipv6 address is.
Output:
Code:
aaron@teeny:~$ sudo ifconfig usb0
usb0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr ee:49:00:00:00:00
inet6 addr: fe80::ec49:ff:fe00:0/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:12 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:2520 (2.5 KB)
I suspect it's an issue to be resolved on my computer, as opposed to the kindle. Like my usb networking interface just doesn't have ipv4 turned on properly.
P.S. Thanks to everyone here who has provided and shared such excellent knowledge and help. Especially NiLuJe, ecostin, h1uke, porkupan, DiapDealer, among many others who my mind forgets or I don't know about
