I'm using now Calibre 0.8.17 on Ubuntu to load and delete non DRM books with no problems onto Kobo Touch with software version 1.9.10 . When you delete book from Kobo empty trash on Ubuntu to fully delete the book. To eject KT left click on down arrow to right of Device icon and select Eject this Device. If you have loaded many books you will see progress bar to eject. With latest software I have loaded 1000 books at one time with no problems and KT takes reasonable time to update data base, With older versions of KT software I would only load 20 to 100 books because data base update took too long or would not complete job.

Calibre web site has instructions on how to update calibre beyond what is in Ubuntu repositories. Copy, paste script into terminal then enter. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 .
