My mom is getting a Kindle Fire, and she uses Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit. I need to find a program to have her Kindle working with her Ubuntu machine. I would really hate it if we couldn't find an app for it.
thanks for any help!!

There is a very handsome utility out into world which helps you to manage your Kindle ebooks and which is also an excellent viewer for it. The application is called "Calibre". There are thousands of websites which link to Calibre but you can see its installation instruction here: http://blog.sudobits.com/2010/09/05/how-to-install-calibre-on-ubuntu/

Calibre is the software you want to use.
