I've been working on this -- off and on -- all day. And I did figure out I needed a login -- which I already had. (I had converted some Google books to my Nook, using my wife's Windows computer about a year ago -- so now that part is settled in my mind.) Thanks to the suggestion by GeoffR, I was able to get Adobe Digital Editions 1.7.2 working via Wine -- not that I'm crazy about having to use Wine, but it's better than nothing. I was able to authenticate the computer and the Nook so transferring files works fine. I also figured out how to set up the DeDRM in Calibre and can convert Nook to Kindle to Sony to Nook to Kindle (in whatever direction). I buy my books -- I'm not a thief -- but it sure is nice to be able to pick whatever device I want to read my books on. (Also nice for backup purposes. I would hate to see my Nook go kaput and not be able to read my Nook books.) I borrowed an ePub library book (and returned it already) to make sure I could get it to my Nook. Worked fine, but I still like the idea of going directly to the eReader.
At any rate, all is working -- thanks. (And sorry about the rambling.)
