Two Guys on Gaming, Tech, and the World

Using Amazon’s Kindle App with Ubuntu

March 5, 2011 By Topher 2 Comments

The Amazon Kindle is a good product in its own right, but its functionality is exponentially increased with Amazon Kindle Apps. I have the app installed on my MacBook Pro and on my EVO. My desk isn’t well suited for holding my laptop and my desktop, so I had been trying to use my EVO to read programming books while coding on my desktop. This was pretty frustrating though because despite its 4.3-inch screen the display was still a little bit too small for a setup like this to work. I looked and found this article over at LifeHacker.com about how to get the app to run in Linux. I followed the instructions but am still trying to make it work. I hope you have better luck.
