Thanks Marek!!
1)
My Kobo Touch N705C loads Debian and the wifi finds an address from my router but when I ping that address from my Mac I get no response.
Telnet and ftp to that address also do nothing.
I do
ps aux
and see no reference to vsftpd or similar.
I expected to telnet ok.......????

2)
I wired all 3 serial ports in the Touch.
Only the port nearest to the USB port does anything
In a terminal program on my Mac I see boot-up messages on it at 115200 baud - but I cannot type anything in.

If I do
sudo cat /dev/ttymxc0 in the Debian terminal I can type
hello <return> on the Mac
and see hello in the Debian terminal


I really need telnet and ftp - have I missed the point?
