I must ask what is perhaps a silly question: Does the Kobo need to be rooted? 'Cause if it does, perhaps that's why it doesn't work! If that's not the reason, I have an early version of the Kobo Touch, N905, with 3.0.0 of the Firmware installed.

I will tell you about what the install did:
1. Deleted the KoboRoot.tgz file and replaced it with a file "KoboReader.sqlite".
2. Added a folder in .kobo: "fmon" with two files: "fmon" and "launcher.sh".
3. Added another folder in .kobo: "KoboLauncher" with a bunch of files and folders.

The Kobo starts properly and I can read the books thereon but I cannot find a way to start the launcher!

I await your advice.
Here you can find a detailed description of the installation procedure for Kobolauncher (needed for Coolreader) and Koreader.

BTW These are alternative eReaders for Kobo.
