I have two Kobo Touch B e-readers and one Kobo Touch C, and they all have the i.MX507 processor. It seems the Model B started out with the i.MX508, but at some point they must have switched to the i.MX507.

Below are my notes after opening up the devices to figure out what they really had inside:

Code:
Kobo Touch N905B Specification:
  Mark 3 Hardware, Original Touch Model
  Freescale i.MX508 Multimedia Applications Processor (800 MHz)
  Processor Model: MCIMX508CVM8B (Full Specification)
Kobo Touch N905B text on processor:
  Device #1 - MCIMX507CVM8B N78A CTJB1136R CHINA
  Device #2 - MCIMX507CVM8B N78A CTJL1136G CHINA

Kobo Touch N905C Specification:
  Mark 4 Hardware, Low Cost Model
  Freescale i.MX507 Multimedia Application Processor (800 MHz)
  Processor Model: MCIMX507CVM8B (No GPU)

How do I do it? Konsole means I have to reboot, so I guess either an integrated command line in nickel (which I dream of... ) or SSH/telnet.

there's https://github.com/llandsmeer/inkvt, but qtermwidget would probably be a better choice for now, given that inkvt's still in early development stages (but it's awesome for sure)
looking forward to that!
