Hello,
I am running Calibre on Linux (Mint 18.3). Whenever I plug my Kindle into my computer, Calibre starts automatically. This seems to be the default behaviour. Now, I find that rather annoying, as I often plug my Kindle in simply to recharge it. So I'd like to disable this autostart feature. As this is very basic functionality, there should be an option somewhere in Preferences to turn this setting off. However, I haven't been able to find it. Searching the Internet has also turned up nothing.
So I hope someone here knows the answer. How can I keep Calibre from autostarting on plugin events? Help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
