So, please post:
(*) What IP address assignment you are using on the Kindle end (defined in the config file on the Kindle).
(*) What IP address assignment you are using on the PC end. |
Oh.
Oh!!
Yes, I know what different IP's are for, even though you might not tell so from my dumb display yesterday.
Tell you what, I was mislead by a part of the documentation:
Quote:
I'm using 192.168.15.201 here, because the default settings match the ones used in diags, and some diags scripts expect the host
to be on this specific address.
If you use a custom KINDLE_IP, and/or don't care about diags, you're free to use any (free) address in the correct subnet .

I don't know why, that led me to think that was referred to kindle ip, and therefore I had to bind usb0 to the kindle ip. Dumb me.
Okay, so, usbnet is now bound to 192.168.15.244, and I bound my pc usb0 to 192.168.15.201.
telnet:
Code:
root@acerino:~# telnet 192.168.15.244
Trying 192.168.15.244...
Connected to 192.168.15.244.
Escape character is '^]'.
Welcome to Kindle!

And then it just hung while I was typing. No keypress generated any feedback. I could see from the kual entries that usbnetwork was still enabled and sshd was up, but nothing worked in the telnet session. And by nothing, I mean also ctrl-c or ctrl-d for example.
On a new shell I then tried to ping the kindle (which was correctly responding to ping prior that hang):
Code:
root@acerino:~# ping 192.168.15.244
PING 192.168.15.244 (192.168.15.244) 56(84) bytes of data.
^C
--- 192.168.15.244 ping statistics ---
8 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 7054ms
Then, I restarted the kindle and enabled usbnet once again, but yet pings were unsuccessful, and neither telnet or ssh would get any answer.
I rebooted my pc, and ping to the kindle started working again.
So, I went for ssh:
Code:
root@acerino:~# ifconfig usb0 192.168.15.201
root@acerino:~# ping 192.168.15.244
PING 192.168.15.244 (192.168.15.244) 56(84) bytes of data.

I tought something "broke" my pc, but now I see that when I try ssh also the kindle stops responding...
