Hello, I can't get fbink to work on my K4 (JB, USBNetwork, KUAL all working). I have un-tared the 1.25 archive from the first post onto the rw root partition and everything seems to be there:

Code:

[root@kindle /]# which fbink
/usr/bin/fbink
[root@kindle /]# ls -al /usr/bin/fbink
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           26 May  4 18:38 /usr/bin/fbink -> /usr/local/fbink/bin/fbink
[root@kindle /]# ls -al /usr/local/fbink/bin/fbink
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        75604 Dec  5 19:59 /usr/local/fbink/bin/fbink

But calling fbink results in a 'not found' error:

Code:

[root@kindle /]# fbink
-sh: fbink: not found

Same thing when I try to call it directly with its full path. I am new to the Kindle but not new to Linux and I've never seen something like this. What is going on?
