[in nickel] Switch on Wifi, and find your IP address (Settings > Device information > IP address)
[on your Pc] Write into the navigation bar of your web browser
http://{insert your IP here}:8089/rmc_touch.html
for instance: http://10.0.0.2:8089/rmc_touch.html
When you see the webinterface, press the button "exit nickel" (You will not see any change on the screen of your reader, but nickel should now be unresponsive.)

Note: If the webinterface did not appear or "exit nickel" did not work, nickel might have switched of the wifi connection. Switch it on, and retry.

Click the button "print info" and copy the content of the "output field" and post it to this thread (s. 01.jpg).
Select a touch driver (with older devices you will first try libKoboTS.so, with newer devices libKoboTS_h2o2.so), and press the button "create menu"
When the menu appears on the screen (s. 02.png) select one of the menu entries and see whether it works (the letter you selected should appear in the info box; s. 03.png)
Try some other letters to make sure everything is find.
Select "EXIT" (navigate to the second page when necessary to do so). On the reader you should see the information that the exit was successful. Copy the information from the "output field" of the webinterface and post it to this thread (s. 04.jpg).

If the menu did not respond correctly, try to change the settings. When there was no reaction at all, even though you touched the screen all over the place, you might try the other touch driver.
If there was some reaction, but the selections were wrong, you might try changing the values for fb rotation (and maybe ksm rotation.) Do this also if the screen orientation is wrong. Note: When the menu did not exit regularly, you have to "exit ksm menu" before you can again "create menu".

When you are finished press "reboot".
