I didn't say it didn't work. It was/is a speculative question. I don't have a Pi yet. All projects I've seen use dedicated e-ink boards (that is, not your standard Kindle or Kobo, just google "Raspberry Pi" "e-ink", there is one on the Pimoroni forum) and there's not much documentation. I assume those e-ink boards require drivers that might/might not be in the NetBSD kernel? I don't know, I'm just speculating.
