Hello,
I don't want to be annoying but this software works great for a Nook Simple Touch too, it's just that the fonts just show question marks. I was wondering if there could be some fallbacks to pictures. Also, I was able to make a docker-compose for this and it works great! I'll paste it here:

Hi!
I know this has long been abandoned, but maybe I am lucky. I am trying to get this to work on a Kindle Touch. It's working, but it's not extending to the end of the screen.

I am using landscape mode, but same happens in portrait mode. (used the online example to test)

Is there anyone knowing whats causing this? I tried to find anything resizing / size related in the code but wasn't very successful..

This software of yours is working perfectly for me and I appreciate your contribution.
I have noticed that when using landscape mode (i.e., var rotation = "ll") there is wasted space in the top center of the screen. It would probably be more useful if you could add a prominent time display here.

Hey Team, any chance you would consider adding GMT+13 timezone to allow for New Zealand (Daylight Time) zone to be used at http://kindle.hrincar.eu/weather/.

Thank you!

I made minor modifications to the cascading stylesheet file to make the screen fit on the vanilla web browser in landscape mode, in case people don't have a jailbroken device to install a special browser. In essence, I moved forecast and update a bit to the right and everything a bit up, so that words are not cut at the left and the bottom. Everything fits nicely now.

The resulting kindle.css file (in case you want to provide this to others) is:

I'm assuming it's because it's SSL store is out of date and cannot be updated.

I wonder if the icons could be delivered in another way? Perhaps a 'fall back mode' option that uses some other method for icons?

I'm willing to test anything

Hello, first of all, thank you for your hard work.

I would like to report that i have problems with this mod since 4/5 days and wanted to ask if its not supported anymore.
When i go to kindle.hruncar.eu.... page it shows just a blank page. I upladed a picture where it can be seen.

Thanks in advance.

When farenheits is set dashboard always displays "celsius" sign

Hi,

First of all thanks for your great project! Can I ask you to add Russian language as yet another option? I've tried to use &lang=ru parameter and actually succeeded, but the problem is that due to pretty long description text it doesn't fit each box properly. Would it be possible to shorten description, or make adjustments to general design of the webpage to let all text be displayed correfctly? I'm ready to assist you with testing, or translation if necessary. Thanks!

~ds doesn't work anymore, but you can use the following instructions to disable screensaver in a non-jailbroken/non-rooted kindle with the latest firmware (in case you'd like to included them in your readme file):

1. Connect to your Kindle via USB
2. Create a file in the root directory called "TESTD_PREVENT_SCREENSAVER" - can be an empty file, but must be named exactly. (It'll ultimately sit in /mnt/us/ )
3. Reboot the device

If kindle is e.g. in +1 timezone, weather info displays times in GMT (one hour less)
