brain not functioning... but.. I do have Xephyr in the wings, perhaps an overlay solution could be helpful rather than going on the mat with "Awesome"

Okay, okay, maybe I should try to lay out exactly what I'm trying to do?

you did that succinctly. appreciated.

I'd like to SSH outbound from the Kindle to an embedded device, with the -X option so it takes care of all the Xauth forwarding.
|
hmm. I reacall me and Hawhill digging around in that a little ways back for the non X devices. perhaps some of that research will apply. I'll necro-it up.

Basically I'd like to be able to use the Kindle PW as my X display. Your version of kterm-ssh doesn't support the -X option.
|
okay... like using... err.... x2vnc
without the vnc right? to project the display .. okay I think I "get" the request

That's why I was trying to get a real OpenSSH installation going, but it appears the usbnet installation only contains an SSH (and SFTP) server.

I kinda thought Niluje had built that? will dig

I've got some embedded hardware here (right now a Raspberry Pi, will eventually replaced with an ARM device) that I'd like to capture an X session from.
|
okay... I know just about "squat" about these things but we can probably mangle a solution, with enough will and perseverance. Skill is an added bonus I don't bring... but you sound knowledgeable... so that is always good...

There doesn't seem to be a copy of the OpenSSH client installed, so I suppose I'll need that, unless someone has a better way of accomplishing the X forwarding?

Me
dig here RSN and
more specifically here for some general build advice and see about it. okay? or you can. you probably know a bucketload more than me about these things... most "real" developers could happily say that.
Hope that helps clear up my position on what could be brought to the party.
ANSWER: I don't know... but I'm willing to help "find out"
knc1's nod to debian was a good one. perhaps I can just tear you something out via the kindle touch I have here that extracts stuff neatly from debian. will look in the morrow
I'll have a look in Buildroot too... perhaps I already built it.
hmmm

Will have a look...
