I just apply the new version kterm on my KindleBasic,but it does'nt work. My kindle version is 5.6.5 and have jailbreaked. Thank you for reply me!

I know that some libraries were upgraded in 5.6.5 firmware. That is why some binaries compiled for old firmwares will not start. I don't have a device with the new firmware but I believe the problem with kterm is related to matchbox-keyboard binary being linked to old libpng library. Could you please check if this kterm package fixes the problem?

Thank you for reply me, but it dose'nt work!

To solve this problem you would have to log in to your kindle through ssh and try to start kterm and matchbox-keyboard binaries from the above package manually from command line. Then you would be able to see what the exact error is. Otherwise I can't do anything, as I don't have this firmware version. Maybe some other libraries are still missing, or there is another problem.

Thank you for the report. There still seems to be a problem with libpng. Maybe it would be a better solution to statically link to the old version of the library. Please try the new package.
