Is this a known Problem? Is there a way to get series working for KePubs?

Thanks.
Series should work using either driver. Two caveats are in calibre's preferences/Sending books to device, make sure the Metadata management is set to Automatic management and that you need to connect twice (the first time you send the books, safely eject and let your Kobo import them, the second connect now has database entries to update). Otherwise, check the 3rd configuration tab (Metadata, on device and advanced) for both the KT and KTE drivers and make sure they are set the same. I've attached an image of what mine looks like -- basically, the Set series information checkbox needs to be checked. You can disregard the Advanced options, that setting is just handy when Kobo updates and the calibre driver has not been updated.
