Kite USB network modification
Hi,

Sometimes when I run USBnetwork I want to know which mode it switched to. This is because for some reason on my Kindle a kite script will be run automatically (I think it may the the last one that I ran beacause maybe Kindle refreshes or reoopen the last "book").

Anyway, I modified the USB network script to do the following - display which mode it is going to (using eips).

Please see the below:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
kitersrc=/mnt/base-us/kite/.rsrc
kiteconfig=/mnt/base-us/kite/config
usbipv4=`head -1 $kiteconfig/usbipv4`
if lsmod|grep -q g_ether; then
	eips 10 11 "**** To Storage Mode ****"
	pkill xinetd
	rmmod g_ether
	modprobe g_file_storage
else
	eips 10 11 "**** To Ethernet Mode ****"
	rmmod g_file_storage
	modprobe g_ether
	ifconfig usb0 $usbipv4
	mount /mnt/base-us -o remount,exec
	$kitersrc/sbin/xinetd
fi
Thanks,
James
