I am using Linux on a chromebook. This fact being stated I have all the files except the program itself on an external hard drive as there is no storage on the chromebook. The first time I connected my kindle via USB connect I got about 100 of the message box that states the error that occurs with covers. Now when I try and connect it, the computer is acting like the kindle has been disconnected when I have not done that. I have run the debug in calibre and I have it in this post. Can someone help me figure out how to fix this issue. I have restarted both devices and linux with another restart of the the computer.
