hello
after an automatic update of my kobo H2O V2 , I can't reinstall Koreader
clic on Nickelmenu give a pop up : " generator error" ...
clic in generator error : kfmon: error checking':/tmp/kfmon-ipc.ctl': stat: No such file or directory (snc/generator_c.c:93)
I like very much Koreader which is really better than the kobo interface !

I Just followed this thread, but no solution.

"Connect your Kobo eReader to your computer over USB.
Download KoboRoot.tgz (release notes) into KOBOeReader/.kobo. You may need to show hidden files to see the folder.
Safely eject your eReader and wait for it to reboot.
Ensure there is a new menu item in the top-left main menu entitled NickelMenu (it will appear in the bottom-right on firmware 4.23.15505+).
Connect you Kobo eReader to your computer again and create a new file (of any type) named KOBOeReader/.adds/nm/config, and follow the instructions in KOBOeReader/.adds/nm/doc to configure NickelMenu."

Is there a detailed thread to solve the problem ? thanks
