Personally, I use this with USB networking configured to autostart. That way, I can just plug in the Kindle, press "Shift V U" and get going.
Windows users check out kranu's "eMonitor" thread. The software does a similar things and kranu mentions ways how to set up a virtual second display for Windows. I'm not to sure how to run vnc on one display out of many, though. I recommend to start with cloning your existing desktop. You'll probably want your kindle in landscape mode for that, so do the rotation before starting kindlevncviewer. |
I am trying to set up my kindle paperwhite three as a external monitor for my Mac as I suffer from Computervision syndrome with normal screens. I have followed all of the advice on here but have got to the stage where my Mac Will recognise my kindle in USB network mode however not allow me to connect in vnc Mode.
I am using Mac with the latest o.s and Vine vnc software. My kpw3 is jail broken running kual and usbnetwork and vncviewer installed. However when I attempt to connect to vine vnc through my kindles vncviewer software, it asks me for a host
ort and password. I use 192.168.1.2 and have tried numerous passwords but i still cannot get the kindle to display the macs information.
All help will be greatly appreciated as I desperately want and need to use this function.
