OK. Thank you.
I tried to follow this guy's advice:

But that didn't work. Then I followed this guy's advice:

which seems to be working.

It seem's like I've SSH'd into the Kindle, cheers! All I have to do now is to get the KindleVNC to work ... back on it!
edit:
When I did not have the kindle plugged in:
Code:
~> ping 192.168.15.244
PING 192.168.15.244 (192.168.15.244): 56 data bytes

When I plugged in the kindle again:
Code:
~> ping 192.168.15.244
PING 192.168.15.244 (192.168.15.244): 56 data bytes

So I tried to SSH into it:

zsh: correct 'ssh' to '.ssh' [nyae]? n

I went to System preferences -> Sharing -> Screen Sharing and enabled screen sharing (this is the built-in VNC right?)
Code:
Other users can access your computer's screen at vnc://192.168.1.125/ or by looking for “John's MacBook Pro” in the Finder sidebar.
However, when I now try to connect to 192.168.1.125 nothing happens, really.
Code:
[root@kindle root]# /mnt/us/kindlevncviewer/kvncviewer.sh 192.168.1.125 &

edit:
Hmmmm, interesting. When my kindle is unlocked and plugged in and I try to mount the kvncviewer my screen *does refresh* but then nothing happens. It does refresh, so that MUST mean something is happening behind the scenes.
edit:
So I just downloaded a VNCviewer for my Mac and that seems to work fine. In other words, I can enter the VNC session with my own screen at 192.168.1.125. I guess that this implies that the VNCviewer on my kindle is broken or doesn't work.
So, should I leave the kindle unlocked or locked? How do I boot up the vncviewer?
