You're supposed to wait a couple of days before breaking your Christmas presents

I tried to install XCSoar (KoboRoot.tgz ) but now when I switch on the Kobo, I can only see the XCSoar main screen (but tapping on the buttons nothing happens..).
The factory reset procedure doesn't work.

What method? The one listed on Kobo's site probably won't work as that requires the device to boot to a certain point four times. I think XCSoar stops that from happening. If it doesn't boot properly, you can try:

- Make sure the device is charged by plugging it in for at least an hour.
- Ensuring the device is off by holding the power button down for at least 20 seconds.
- Turn the device on but hold the button down.
- Tap both the bottom corners of the screen.
- When the restoring message is displayed, let the power button go.

When I tested this on either my Glo HD or Aura H2O, it took me a couple of tries to get the timing right.

I cannot read the SD card on my computer (format required)

I assume it is a Windows machine. The SD card has three partitions and the first two are either ext3 or ext4. Windows cannot handle that. If you let it format the card, your sunk.

Can someone help me?
Does anybody have an image for the kobo touch 2.0

Unfortunately, no. There hasn't been many sightings of the Touch 2.0 here. I don't remember seeing an image created for one yet.
