Has anyone gotten pbchess working with Kindle Scribe + 5.16.2.0.1 ?

Hi friends!

Got the jailbreak working last night. Yay!

Installed python2 & python3 packages. I THINK I installed gawk correctly (placed the gawk folder in the /mnt/us/extensions directory).

Yet when I put vlavsoft's software in /mnt/us and the launcher in /mnt/us/extensions it launches with a blank screen. Is this the expected behavior? Am I doing something wrong?

I'm pretty sure Sergey's QPA doesn't deal with the MTK devices at all.

(Unless it goes the X11 route, which I don't *think* it ever did?).
