So I'm still rocking my Kobo Touch N905B with KOReader. The power switch is a little dodgy and I'm not sure the battery is quite what it used to be, but it still suits my needs, mostly. And then today I dropped it somewhere.

I supposed it could be a whole lot worse, but the upper-left corner of the screen is non-functional, an area about 5 mm x 15 mm. Just enough to be a little annoying.

I'm sure there's no hope of actually repairing something like this, but I can't possibly be the first person to be confronted with this problem. Would it not be feasible to make KOReader stop trying to render text in that particular area? I'm not sure what to Google to get more details.
