I finally got USB OTG to work, and even recognise HID devices.
The next step would be to actually use it. By default, the Java framework and consequently KindleTERM completely ignore the keyboard.
Not sure about native apps, but native apps for K4 are rare...
I think someone ought to have figured this out, but the search function and google are leaving me in the cold.
I found a reference to waitforkey, which waits for USB keyboard presses as well.
I found that in start.sh it says extkeyboard=false. Setting that to true lets me use the arrows, home, ctrl and maybe a few more to move around. But not type!
Even then, I would probably need to patch KindleTERM to support *any* keyboard at all. Or get Myts to run with the K4's new powers.
