Does Calibre no longer work with the unpatched PRS-505's? I had it working fine under Ubuntu 9.04 with an old copy, but when I reinstalled linux I grabbed a new copy of Calibre. The USB device shows up as being recognized by linux, but Calibre won't recognize it.

So I jumped to windows computer and loaded the windows version of Calibre. Windows recognized the Sony, and loaded the drivers successfully. But again, Calibre doesn't see it.

Is there something else going on, or does Calibre just not recognize the unpatched versions (e.g., the original firmware)?
