The script that starts Koreader is adds/kbmenu/onstart/start_koreader.sh.

Sure, what do you want me to look at? Applying it to my system?

Yes, please apply it to the system. The reason is that, it is helpful if we are all testing with the same code.
In adds/kbmenu/onstart/start_koreader.sh there you can find

Code:

  if [ "$PRODUCT" == "snow" ]; then
    koreaderrotate=2

Changing 2 to 0 should make Koreader display up-side-down. And if the touch coordinates were mirrored horizontally, display and touch orientation should now match each other.
Edit: I took vertically to mean "turned by 180°". If it is to be understood literally, changing 2 to 0 is no real improvement.

It seems like If I touch on the right side, it is registered on the corresponding side but on the left. The Y coordinate is the same. Seems there is already a separate protocol parsed for the H202, called "alyssum" [1]. I'm very curious if there's work going on to fix the multitouch issue. Would be nice to get the input registered when using only one finger instead of having to put another finger down first.

This is no longer true as of Plato 0.3.4.

Thank you. I have removed this passage from the first post.

KSM 09 on H2O (original) latest firmware there. I got the rotation bug only when I exit nickel to KSM. But when I use the (nickel/koreader) switch scripts for example it works just fine, without the rotation bug.

Regards,

Thank you for reporting. This will be fixed with the first update.

Thank you for the quick trial. However, it does not seem to work. As soon as /mnt/onboard is unmounted, fmon exits.

I works for me, so I have attached a debug build.

Could you provide the output of fmon if it still fails?

Baskerville,

in case this might help, I add a telnet log. It contains

calling fmon
ps
unmounting the user partition
ps

Should be fixed, please try the attached binary.

This on did it. Thank you!

I've released fmon 0.3.1.

There was another critical bug that could be triggered simply by opening a watched file without the required number of thumbnails: the fmon process would then go into an infinite loop. This bug was present since 0.2.0!
