That should work.
You can also use the safemode tool included as part of the platform instructions (press the home button at boot, when the little dots are displayed).
You should see an image like
https://github.com/pazos/cervantes-s...ges/usbnet.png and be able to connect to telnet as usual.
In that mode calling the program will show you logs and block your terminal until the program is closed.
If you try this way you can uncompress the old version in a different directory and call koreader.sh from there.

Yup, it was fixed in master (see
https://github.com/bq/cervantes/pull/9) but never hit a release.

Stock doesn't matter anymore
. If you're serious documenting the behaviour please read
https://github.com/koreader/koreader...ment-439700537
try to reproduce, write different (in range) values to the sysfs nodes and see if you find a particular pattern.
You can also see their github repo and find the way they do the pattern correction, if there's any.
Anyhow, we're doing the proper thing with the hardware (writting to the right nodes within the proper ranges). Also the code that does light is under a HAL, so implementing pattern correction for a specific platform might not be as easy as it sounds.

I do, it's named "hackers_update_Cervantes4_702.zip". It should be exactly the same you're currently at.
