I don't have a PW-2 myself, so sorting out OTG hardware issues will be difficult, but
lets check what we can check:
make a copy of /proc/config.gz and attach it to your next post.

I'll read through that configuration file and see if it has any show-stoppers in it.

Use the 'advanced editor' here (if you are not in the 'advanced editor - there will be a "go advanced" button below this text box -
Scroll past this text entry box and there you will find a 'manage attachments' section.

The PW-2 ***should*** have working OTG.

The references you are reading are very, very out-of-date.

With limited cross-compile experience, I suggest you start out simple - -

Install qemu-static/bin_fmt_misc on your Linux installation.
You didn't mention the Distribution you are running, but nearly all modern versions support that.

With that addition, your Linux box can run ARM code.
I.E: Allow you to do "native builds" under emulation.

Since this may turn into a big chore -

Update your PW-2 to the most recent Amazon firmware release.
If you jail broke it following the directions on this site, your jail break will survive (you will get progress messages from the update bridge code on screen when the newly installed update is first booted).
