Hi all!

Does anyone know if it is possible to get USB host mode on Kobo? I don't own the device so I can not investigate this myself, but if someone with a terminal could find out what USB controller is used, that would be awesome!

Now, I am not sure what commands would give the most relevant info, but imagine that dmesg would give something useful. It is in busybox, so running

Code:

busybox dmesg

should work

. Depending on how the kernel is configured

Code:

lsmod

might be interesting as well.

I have no idea what bus the Kobo uses, but

Code:

lspci -vv

could be worth a try as well

.

Thanks!
