I could possibly find another dirt cheap EPUB 3 book and buy it to try on my device and see if it works? Only if I did that and it ended up working I would face the nightmare of in the future not even knowing if a book I wanted to buy would work on the ereader. A roll of the dice if you will (I wouldn't even buy it if that was the case) unless the full culprit of the problem could be found and solved.

There must be a problem either with the files that I'm getting from Kobo or the onboard ADE software.
If it was the onboard RMSDK we would have had morereports from other Pocketbook users. It could be something with the eBook maybe.

What eBook is this that you are having trouble with?

You may be able to install ADE 2.0.1 under Linux. Here are the directions.
