I would like to see a slimmed down image for the Glo with just FBreader, like it boots up and loads FBreader and that's it.

@PhantomWiggler: Thanks for ready-made image for Kobo mini. Saved me time and effort.
![]() Can someone comment on how stable this runs on their Kobo? Also, in terms of battery consumption, how does it score compared to Kobo's own Linux? USB-OTG is a must, now that XCSoar has it. Anyone wants to bring Arch Linux on Kobos? ![]() Last edited by thatworkshop; 11-25-2015 at 10:09 PM. |

So has anybody had any success in porting newer Linux kernels to the kobo? I'm an absolute beginner to Linux, but by googling I found out there was a 3 and even a 4 since this thread was created. (Forgive my ignorance if there are hardware limitations that make it impossible to distribute them to the Kobo!)
Anyway, I recently dug out my Kobo N905b, saw this thread and decided I wanted to do this. I think the N905b has an internal sd card, right? Is there anything you would do differently in 2016 that I could try? Is anybody still working on this? Last edited by TomDecker; 03-05-2016 at 04:06 AM. |

HAVE A QUESTION ON ttymcx1 and ttymcx2
Dear all:
I have the KOBO Touch running Debian Linux, everything looks good BUT I can not manage to use /dev/ttymcx1 nor /dev/ttymcx2. stty works, I can set all the parameters but once /dev/ttymcx1 receives data, the system hangs, /dev/ttymcx2 does not work at all... I wonder if those ports are used by other hardware, or I am missing some piece in the puzzle. BTW, /dev/ttymcx0 runs happy as debug console, also USB eth gadget works fine as well as WiFi... Any help will be very appreciated. |

Hi Marek.
I have tried to download the three image files for Linux from your Dropbox, but unfortunately images 2 and 3 appear to be corrupt (image 1 appears to be fine, and extracts without any reported errors) Please can you have a look, and re-publish them? (Or is the error due to something that I am doing?) Thanks. |

So, does anyone has an idea how can I actually simulate a right click?
I am intending to use a kobo as a digital map/gps having a debian image on it plus a gps module + a new battery and a 3d printed case would be the best solution for a "rudged outdoor" gps only costing a couple of cents/drahmas/kopejkas/stotinkas...etc ![]() Last edited by rossenb0ssen; 06-11-2021 at 08:05 AM. |
