InkBox: a new open-source OS and eBook reader based on Qt5

[bart_simpson]

I installed 2.0 on my N905B and Inkbox goes to sleep after a few minutes and will not wake up more than once. The second time the device goes to sleep, the only way to get it to wake up is by pressing the reset button.

I have tried checking and unchecking the deep sleep box in Settings, disabling kobox apps, and setting a PIN. No difference.

I also tried letting it sleep with a book open and at the home screen. Same result.

Hopefully, it should fix the issues you're having.

To everyone reading this: if there is enough interest and you would like a development image pushed for your device, let me know. Currently, the main development effort is centered on the PineNote, but I don't want to totally declare the Kobo project as "dead", as I still push commits from time to time to the repos.

Hi, thank you for the effort to continue the developement of Quill-os.
I've bought a second hand kobo nia (N306), opened it and extract the microsd beacause the ebook reader was stuck in a loop with the screen and the led flashing continiously. I've succesfuly write the latest "inkbox-2 0-n306 20250803-dev" image with piimager v2.06 (the tool for raspberry's soc), but the touch doesn't work.
So i've burn the inkbox-2.0-n306_a on another sd card, and the e-reader is working now, but every page of an ebook is missing the very last lines of text (seems the are coverd by the tab with the arrows used to flip pages).
Also i don't know which is the N306c model (didn't find anything on that online) and how to identify correcltly my kobo nia. I didn't tested the N306c images beacause i feared it could brick my e-reader. Any suggestion?

Thank you.
