First off, welcome to the forum... And - a reminder that you are posting in the wrong thread.
You're having a problem with usbnetwork, not with Kubrick. So if you keep having trouble, please post in the usbnetwork thread instead. Anyway...

In diags - usbnet mode the Kindle registeres on lsusb as

Correct so far.

And here is what I belive to be the problem:
Nmap scan report for 192.168.15.244
Host is up (0.00017s latency).
Not shown: 998 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
139/tcp open netbios-ssn
445/tcp open microsoft-ds

That is NOT a Kindle. It's a Windows machine (or possibly a Linux host with only Samba enabled). Chances are that you configured your network incorrectly. The recommended settings (in usbnet/etc/config) are HOST_IP=192.168.15.201, KINDLE_IP=192.168.15.244.

Make sure that you are using the latest version of usbNetwork for the K4, and make sure to configure it correctly, and to start it. In other words: READ the instructions that come with usbnetwork. Double-check usbnet/etc/config after installation, and enable it by typing ~usbNetwork. To be extra-careful, make sure that you booted the Kindle with the USB cable DISCONNECTED. (on some Kindles, having the cable connected during startup will cause funky failures when trying to enable usbNetwork, though I'm quite sure that this only affects the K5).
