I bump ancient threads too if they are the most relevant.

Most social conventions and unofficial rules never made much sense to me, because they are all-too-often based on the same principles as the Five Monkeys Experiment and the Pot Roast Story. Standards however, an entirely different matter.

There is no need to limit yourself to Optware. I made a full debian root that works in my kindles, based on instructions posted elsewhere by twobob. More flexibility but (if not careful) more memory usage too. Swap files are the key...
