Thank you for the detailed writeup!
Turns out I had to switch cables after all, because I am a smoothbrain who assumed I could use the same usb cord in either kindle mode. Swapped for the usb from my wacom and dmesg returns this:

The first thing that's apparent to me is that my dmesg returns 'error-16' rather than having renamed usb0.
I continued with:
$ sudo ifconfig usb0 192.168.15.201
$ ping 192.168.15.244

and $ ssh root@192.168.15.244 hangs.
Should I try more usb cables? Is there some simple setup step I've missed in USBN? What is the meaning of 'error-16'? Device is busy? How do I work around this?
Thanks again!
