@davidfor. It's not about the displaying of the chapter name at the bottom of the page. I find that some kepubs do it and other's don't.
What I meant is with Epubs, I was never able to display anything to do with chapters. If I set the reader to show number of pages until the end of the chapter, or check the time of reading left until the end of chapter, the entire book would show as one long chapter.
It's only when I started using Kepubs (converted with the extended driver plugin in Calibre) that the chapter options worked as they should.
I understand what you're saying about the driver not touching the TOC. As I've said, the last time I read epubs on the Kobo was about two years ago, so my memory might be faulty. All I can remember is that when starting to use kepubs, the chapter thing was something I noticed. It's possible that I'd never tried to interact with chapters with epubs before (but I don't think that's the case). Could they have introduce the option to parse the chapters in epubs in a later version of the firmware?
In any case, the sluggishness when using epubs was really affecting my reading experience after having been used to the Sony reader, and I was kind of regretting my purchase of the Kobo (the integrated light was the reason I got the Kobo and stuck with it) until I found out about kepubs. The chapter thing I thought was just a bonus.
