Good question. Wrong person. My guess is that the stable version was stable until the KA1 and newer models and firmware appeared on the scene.

So, just like you now have to apply that extra patch when installing KSM 08 on your KA1, you also now have to install a more recent version of Koreader for it to work properly. Perhaps, eventually, there will be a new stable version.

I initially made the same mistake thinking that a "stable version" would be preferable and more stable than a "nightly build". It also took me a little while to figure out how to install the nightly build. Not being very technogically savvy, it was not as clear to me as how to install the unstable stable build. But, eventually, I got it sorted.

All that said, Koreader is fairly stable now on my Ka1 with the version I am currently running. It occasionally crashes, but I look up a lot of words when I am reading in Chinese, and perhaps unduly stress it. Hopefully, as I continue to read, my vocabulary will continue to improve and I will not need to rely on the various dictionaries quite so frequently.
