Thanks to all people who made possible this AWESOME reader, I love to read pdfs in my kobo mini

Back to nickel from koreader does work, but the screen is not refreshed. I solved this issue simulating a touch in the home button of my mini, this is device-specific and you need to get the bin input for your device first.

From telnet/ssh:

# cat /dev/input/event1 > homebutton

then I touch "one time" the home button and exit from the last command with "Ctrl+C"
To test if your bin file work try this command:

# cat homebutton > /dev/input/event1

You should see nickel's home after an e-ink update.

Another thing I would love to see on kobo's port of koreader is a working translation: AFAIK translation does not work because it relies on gettext and gettext is not found on kobo firmware. I built gettext from kobo with armhf toolchain and install it but had no effect. I tried to load libintl via LD_PRELOAD too ..

Could you please provide me some feedback to get the work done? Thanks

By the way, this is my first post on the forum, happy to meet you
