Before running koreader, fbset -s gives

mode "800x600-0"
	# D: 0.033 MHz, H: 0.034 kHz, V: 0.055 Hz
	geometry 800 600 800 1280 16
	timings 30000000 8 164 4 18 4 1
	accel false
	rgba 5/11,6/5,5/0,0/0
endmode

After running koreader, fbset -s givers

mode "600x800-0"
	# D: 0.033 MHz, H: 0.043 kHz, V: 0.052 Hz
	geometry 600 800 608 1792 8
	timings 30000000 8 164 4 18 4 1
	accel false
	rgba 8/0,8/0,8/0,0/0
endmode

I try to set

fbset -g 800 600 800 1280 16 -rgba 5/11,6/5,5/0,0/0 -t 30000000 8 164 4 18 4 1

and fbset -s shows

mode "600x800-0"
	# D: 0.033 MHz, H: 0.043 kHz, V: 0.052 Hz
	geometry 600 800 608 1792 16
	timings 30000000 8 164 4 18 4 1
	accel false
	rgba 5/11,6/5,5/0,0/0
endmode

As you see, of the geometry set only the -depth value (8 to 16 bits per pixel) has changed, the resolution is unchanged. Was this to be expected? I also tried setting each of the 5 geometry values individually, but with the same result. Is it an error in busybox? Is my approach totaly hopeless? Any ideas?

Excuse me I have a simillar problem. Koreader's display looks fine but touch turned by 270 degree. I read your post but I didn't understand which file needs change?

Fix problem in accordance with:

You will probably need an editor that writes only line feed at the end of lines, rather than carriage return and line feed; cf. this.

But the way to input.lua was: i:\.adds\koreader\frontend\device\input.lua
