No joy. I also reviewed the release notes for Calibre V0863 for an applicable fix. I did not see anything there.
The change to calibre was in either 0.8.60. There was a bug fix in 0.8.63 to fix a typo related to this change.

To reiterate what PeterT said: There is no problem with with current calibre versions and the Kobo Touch firmware 2.0.0 or 2.0.2. The changes in the firmware do not affect the interaction between calibre and the Kobo Touch. I have been using the two together since the firmware was released with no issues.

I would like to fall back until Calibre catches up.

Can someone PM me and point me to the location of older Kobo Touch firmware?
There is a list in https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=185660. But, this won't help you. The firmware version that calibre is looking for is a lot older than 0.9.17, which is what I guess you had before. calibre 0.8.60 or later will still complain about this. You will still need to change the configuration of the driver in calibre to get it to talk to the Kobo Touch completely.

So, unless you want to go back to a previous firmware for some other reason, don't bother.
