Calibre can't see BeBook Neo

I apologise if this has been answered already, but I can't find it anywhere.

I just bought a BeBook Neo and installed Calibre to use it to manage my ebooks. However, it can't seem to detect the ereader. Here is the stuff that gets spat out in the terminal:

Code:
$calibre
link  hasn't been detected!
link  hasn't been detected!
Unable to open device <calibre.devices.hanlin.driver.BOOX object at 0xacafdac>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/device.py", line 123, in do_connect
    dev.open()
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/devices/usbms/device.py", line 629, in open
    self.open_linux()
  File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/devices/usbms/device.py", line 599, in open_linux
    %self.__class__.__name__)
DeviceError: Unable to detect the BOOX disk drive. Your  kernel is probably exporting a deprecated version of SYSFS.
Connect to device failed, retrying in 5 seconds...
I checked the FAQ, but I do not have CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 set:

Code:
$zgrep SYSFS /proc/config.gz
# CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 is not set
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSFS_POWER=y
CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS=y
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_SYSFS=y
CONFIG_SYSFS=y
As such, I'm completely stumped as to what the problem is. Any ideas?
