I have been trying to get Koreader to work on a Touch HD (running 5.16.579 firmware) , but with very limited success so far:

I eventually managed to get it to open when I found a tip to vary the pocketbook device.lua, and another to create a en_US folder (which did not exist) in l10n.

However, in testing it is proving incredibly unstable with just basic use failing in the following:

1. Seeking to change any of the settings results in the app crashing with the crash log simply reporting a segmentation fault. (Thus, I am stuck with only those settings I can change in the defaults.lua)

2. Page navigation backwards often causes a crash after 2 or 3 pages - again I just get a segmentation error report.

3. Pinch/zoom font size changes seem to take forever to be implemented.

I am using the last nightly I have found (20170612). Is there an earlier build which people can recommend, or fixes to the latest which they can suggest, or should I just forget Koreader on Pocketbook for the moment?

Ideas?
