So I got my Libra 2 now and I am running in to a problem using NickelMenu.
I want to use rclone on my Libra 2 and basically it runs when I use cmd_output with the command "rclone --help" and gives me the expected output. But when I use it for syncing my books with "rclone sync..." it gives me an error:

Quote:
could not run process: process exited with status 1
Is there any possibility to show the exact error?

I sometimes get that when the device is low on RAM. If the command sometimes works, try rebooting to clear out RAM and then try the command again.

thank you but I already tried that out. It must have something do when accessing an rclone remote (so to say a cloud drive) with the command. I tried several other rclone commands that don't involve access to a cloud drive and they all work, except the ones that connect to a remote in some way, not just syncing files but also just list them on that remote.

I really need to get the exact error to figure out what the problem is.

EDIT: here is the solution to get the exact error

I use the following NM config and it works fine (takes a fair bit of time but concludes with success):

menu_item :main :Rclone Sync :cmd_spawn:quiet:/mnt/onboard/.adds/rclone sync /mnt/onboard/ PCloud:Kobo_HD --log-level INFO --log-file=/mnt/onboard/.adds/rclone.log

The only other thing I can think of is if you have a lot of extra fonts, try removing some of them, reboot and try again. Like I said, I get that exact same error whenever I'm running low on RAM and try to launch programs like koreader or plato. Killing nickel and restarting it would do it too, but that was easier in the days of KSM; obviously, NickelMenu needs nickel to run. Perhaps running the rsync operation needs a lot of RAM itself.

It was something rclone specific, and now I figured it out thanks to the solution on stackexchange.

The "exact same error" is just an trivial error! It just says that the bash script you have run ended with an error. But depeding on the things you do in the script it can be everything. So I needed to tackle down the problem more speicific!

Ah, I gotcha. As useful a message as "Segmentation Fault", then. Glad you figured it out!

Hi there. After installing Nickel, my main menu from top left has disappeared. It's still missing as well after trying uninstall Nickel. Any suggestions? Reset has even disappeared from the "Settings" options.

Please do not double post. For your issue with the upper left hamburger menu on the home screen, see my reply in the Main Menu Disappeared after Nickel Install thread you started.

For reset on the Settings menu, have you tapped on the More button at the bottom left of the Home or My Books screen? Then Settings => Device information => Factory reset your eReader. Though that is not a true factory reset, for that you will either need to follow the manual factory reset for an Aura HD:
  1. Charge your eReader for at least 1 hour.
  2. Turn off your eReader. If unsure, hold the power button for 20 seconds
  3. Press and hold the light button on your eReader.
  4. Slide and hold the power button to the right until you see the power light blink rapidly.
  5. Release the light button and power button.

The alternative is to do a search for devmodeon from the search icon. You won't get any results back but when you go the Device information page, you should now see a Developer options item at the end of the list. The last page of options should have a Factory reset your eReader which will do the revert to factory firmware and wipe all content, etc.

Edit: BTW, it is NickelMenu. Nickel is what supplies the GUI for your Kobo eReader.

Strange, using rclone with any remote was giving me the following error:

Mine not giving an error on that one might be a side-efect of also using KoboMail which deploys certificates files to the Kobo device

When I read one of the kepub books, the interface stopped working

Feedback: my device is glo HD and has upgraded the latest firmware. When I read one of the kepub books, the interface stopped working and can't turn the page. However, it's no problem to use Plato to read. Is the system's default firmware not perfect enough to support kepub?how to fixed it?

I'm rather puzzled. What does your problem have to do with NickelMenu? As for your sample ebook, it's is a bit of a disaster. You have:
Code:
<style type="text/css" class="kobostylehacks">div#book-inner { margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;}</style>
and:
Code:
<p class="calibre6" style="margin:0pt; border:0pt; height:1em"><span class="koboSpan" id="kobo.2.1">*</span></p>
Using a class tag inside a style tag is not a permitted function though you might try something like:
Code:
<style id="kobostylehacks" type="text/css">div#book-inner * { margin-top: 0 !important; margin-bottom: 0 !important;}</style>
<style type="text/css" id="koboSpanStyle">.koboSpan { -webkit-text-combine: inherit; }</style>
Since Kobo's firmware is not happy with Garbage In, I did some quick cleanup on the file and it seems to work on my Kobo. Could you try the attached file and see if it works?

I got today a Glo HD with FW 4.31.19086 to work using NM 0.5.4 for darkmode, so it seems to be possible.
