PRS-600 Problem

[onecreativeguy]

PRS-600 e-reader using Ubuntu version 10.04 LTS the Lucid Lynx. But cant get the darn thing to work with calibre so here I am. Im really not sure if its something I didn't install or if its something wrong with the install or if I need to install something else. I see the e-reader mount when I plug it in I just cant get it to show up in calibre.

Not certain on this but have you installed Sony software... believe instal needed to put some drivers in place then you can forget it and carry on with calibre...

I have been fiddling with it for 3 days now before I came to look for help and it just started working about 30 minutes ago when I loaded it I didn't change anything the only thing I had done is the debug 2x to post the info but its working great now Calibre is so much nicer then the sony garbage I had to use on windows
