Christian Troy has been kind enough to release a Fire Compatible CWM AND A Fire compatible CM10!
The ROM is stable, but the compatibility file needs more work. This ROM uses Feiyu 0930 Kernel.

Features (Ripped from Aurora II post)

* UbiFS (like stock roms)
* Bluetooth USB dongle support
* USB GPS support (cp210x and pl2303)
* Xbox 360 gamepad support (xpad)
* PS3 USB gamepad support (hid-sony)
* Generic / chinese (Pantherlord / GreenAsia) gamepads support (hid-pl and hid-gaff)
* OpenVPN support (tun)
* Veno congestion control algorithm

Instructions
Before flashing a fresh CM rom please wipe media partition with stock recovery then continue with below instructions

1. Extract uImage_recovery from CWM-5.5.0.4-fire_XX.rar to external SD card (XX is QM or TM)
2. Copy cm10_elf2_2012XXXX.zip, gapps-jb-20121011-signed-ubifs.zip and fire_XX-cm10-compatibility-X.X.zip to the external SD card
3. Reboot the tablet in CWM recovery mode (Power + Volume -)
4. Select Wipe Data/Factory reset and confirm the format
5. Choose "Install zip from SD card", select "Choose Zip from SD card" and select cm10_elf2_20121018.zip first.
6. Next select gapps-jb-20121011-signed-ubifs.zip
7. Lastly select fire_XX-cm10-compatibility-X.X.zip (You can then apply any patches if available)
8. Reboot the tablet

No freaking way!!
Couldn't thank you enough!

A few questions, though.

Is the provided CWM safe for use on the fire i.e does it use one of the newer Feiyu Kernels?

Also, is this ROM based of the older source code which does not have the required fixes for the touch screen?
The CWM recovery is based off of the Feiyu 0930 Kernel. It should not break touch screens.
The ROM is built from CM10 Source. The release itself is the same release in the Elf II and Aurora II forums. You just need to flash the Fire compatibility zip on top of it. It uses the 0930 feiyu kernel and should not break touch screens.

Fantastic.
Rom installed as expected.
It boots and appears to be quite fast actually! (Especially when waking up from sleep!)

Auto-rotate appears to be very buggy and my cameras will not work!

Great work Christian! I'm looking forwards to future builds!

Hi,
thanks for CM10 works...

I saw in picture that Ethernet menu is not present (under Wifi and Bluetooth) in parameters list.
I plan to use and USB-Ethernet adapter. Is this feature supported under CM10 ?

Can't wait for autorotate to work properly, that's my only gripe with this ROM atm. I use the tablet for ebook reading a lot and being stuck in one mode kinda sucks
In RC3 this is fully working.

Problems i have seen so far :

- When i browse by the Help of ES file Explorer to "External_SDCard" it says that the folder is empty, but when i am using the sd card on my windows pc i can see the contents

- My device is getting a lot hotter than on flambee V15

- Camera is still not working

But the ROM is much faster than ever before.

Thx anyway

terminal emulator

su
netcfg eth0 up
netcfg eth0 dhcp

@kimi
non proper written app (like es file explorer) that don't fetch paths from environmental variables act like this. If you use "solid explorer" or you point "es file explorer" to /storage/sdcard1 you'll find your microsd
