To avoid wreaking havoc on unsuspecting users doing exactly what you did, launchers are mutually exclusive. That is absolutely not news, so, not related to recent updates  .
Between fmon and KFMon, the latest one installed will take (which explains what you've been observing), while KSM will shortcut everything.
You could probably create a KFMon config file to launch pbchess & co, but that'll take a bit of effort since it bundles fmon, and it may be using/launching it in a number of unexpected ways.
I personally have no interest in doing something like that.
KSM might be able to handle the mess on its own, but I have no experience with KSM, so you'll have to go ask in KSM's thread (which I've now seen you did, ). |
Thanks for your help ! I finally got it all working; that's what I did:
The key issue is that I had to really reset to factory, but NOT the normal reset on the settings menu, but the full one: on the kobo glo hd, you achieve it by turning on the device, keeping the power button pressed while tapping repeatedly the lower left and right corners (see
https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kobo_Reset:_Glo_HD)
I guess that some other things like these two I've installed caused my previous attempts to fail, and the reset option from the settings did not fixed them:

or this:

Then, I installed the full package from
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=314220 ( Plato-0.7.7_KOReader-v2019.10.zip), USING THE SCRIPT method found on post #2
Thad made koreader and plato working again...
Finally, I've installed Kobo Start Menu 09 from
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=293804, and it worked !
Then I've installed pbchess from
http://www.pbchess.vlasovsoft.net/en/index.html, by copying only the vlasovsoft folder to the .adds folder, and then I can acces everything from KSM.
Note that as long as I've installed KSM, koreader and plato stopped working from the default kobo shell and must be executed from ksm. But that is expected, I think, 'cos launchers are mutually exclusive.
