@twobob: I had no deep look into your SDL postings yet. I have pygame (Debian) running on K4 and K5. Of course, I have to trigger screen redraw after every pygame.display.flip(). It works on K5 even with running Xorg and framework. Therefore I thought Navit could run almost out of the box on SDL. Maybe I have to do some SDL configuration. For pygame HWSURFACE|FULLSCREEN) seems to be needed.

@knc1: Building and copying only the few modified modules eases experimenting. Thanks.

@aranwe: Initially I bought the Kindle(s) to use it as a display for some an AVR, MSP or ARM microcontroller. Serial port seems to be the easiest way. But I was hoping to be able to reconfigure the USB pins of the Kindle controller and do some bitbanging. But since I found this V-USB software-only-USB-library I am keen to get OTG running on Kindle. This also would allow to connect a memory stick and an USB mouse together with my AVR.

Disabling "jump-to-main-on-touch" is possible in the navit.xml:

Code:

  <gui type="internal" enabled="yes" menu_on_map_click='0'>

I discovered some guesture based zoom function, which I consider useless and hope to find a config switch for that, too.
