Hi

Sorry if im off-topic, as I guess this is kindle software related, not vlasovsoft...
Everything works fine, but Id like to set the time (which is wrong here), and i dont see any setting for that, am i missing something ?
This is on Kindle NT4, 4.1.1.

Also, on my Kobo, it seems I need to get back to Kobo OS for my pc to see it, and when I put a lot of books in there, the Kobo OS checks them all, takes a lot of time etc...
So, is there a way to connect my Kobo (aura) to my pc via usb, without shutting down the Vlasovsoft stuff ?

Thanks

Are you having trouble running the ntpdate KUAL add-in?

Try the Kobo forum.
The only thing here Kobo related is sometimes questions about KOReader.

I knew there was a "trick" to it on the K4 - but couldn't recall what it was.

Thanks, this software works just fine on PW3 BUT, I had to add my model in line 68 of the file /mnt/us/vlasovsoft/launcher.sh:

G090) model="KPW2" ;;

Nice find.
Perhaps the posted package will get updated for the new models.

At least nothing newer has shown up recently.

I have some questions... Installation of these apps is connected with rooting my Kobo device? Is it the same type of root like on Android? If I install pbchess, my guarantee will expire? Thanks

You might try a Kobo forum, this is the forum for grayscale Kindles.

Ok, sorry, I didn't realize that I have been in the wrong place

Where do you read that?
Please state the section/sub-section you are seeing that requirement.

It appears twice:

*I n the Sourceforge project description.
*The README.TXT file.

I reported it in his forum. It's moderated, so he or one of the moderators approved it manually. I also sent him an email and wrote it in his uservoice account related to coolreader.

I don't notify GPL violations because of nothing, I researched more than enough and asked skilled people about it. Now I'm waiting reply
