Smile How can I run Cool Reader/Vlasovsoft on Kobo Clara 2e?
Hello everybody!
I bought Kobo Clara 2e recently. Its an excellent reader. But I cannot run the Cool Reader/Vlasovsoft bundle on it. It crashes and I vave to restart the reader. Maybe someone knows how to do it? I'm interested only in the cool reader. The rest of the bundle is not important for me.
Thank you very much for the help :-)

Both are discontinued and as the Clara 2e is pretty new it's not supported.

When was the Vlasovsoft bundle discontinued? http://pbchess.vlasovsoft.net/en/index.html may show the current version as dating from 2022 but http://files.vlasovsoft.net/kobo/ has an October 2023 version. Has anyone tested the most recent version on a Clara 2e?

Just tried that 2023.10.21 release on my Clara 2E. It loads the language select for the initial setup but the touchscreen is unresponsive.

Forget Cool Reader. It's dead. Run KOReader instead.

"Use KOReader" may or may not be helpful to the OP, but for anyone looking to use the other applications in the Kobo pbchess bundle or applications depending on it for necessary libraries (e.g. the old QtFrotz port) it is not a solution.
