KSM 8 is amazing, and so is koreader but... KSM 8 seems to become inaccessible when Wifi is enabled on nickel. In that, if Wifi is enabled and I switch to KSM and back again, the kbmenupngs just become normal png files. I can't use them to enter KSM, only view them.

What I did: I switched to KSM using exit_nickel while Wifi was enabled, and I got the "turn Wifi off message" when I went to boot back into nickel. I chose yes. When I went back into nickel, the Wifi icon disappeared, but reappeared after I did a restart.

And when I went to my Library to enter KSM again, the icon went back to being a .png! I had to reflash the root zip. This happens every time I go into KSM while Wifi is enabled.

I'm on 13.19.5761 on a Kobo Aura H2O. Is this normal behaviour? Is it not possible to use KSM while Wifi is running in nickel? Will downgrading to an older firmware fix this?
