New Qt drivers for Kobo Aura H2O
Hi!
As far as I know, my applications (Launcher, CoolReader, chess, etc) are not working with the new Kobo Aura H2O. So, I've created this thread to investigate and find the fix. I have no Aura H2O, so you help is very appreciated! Quote:
Also I need to know, do you have an experience in connecting to Kobo through SSH? I know that you had Kobo Glo. If so, I'm sure that we'll find the solution soon. Last edited by sergeyvl12; 10-11-2014 at 07:13 AM. |

No, I haven't, but it seems that Frenzie, in this post: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=530 has. In that thread he provides a good deal of information.
I installed pbchess, and got to the launcher, which looked fine but did not respond to any input, though I was able to sleep and wake it again with the power button. I also tried advboot, which got me to the file browser of koreader, but that was unresponsive too, power button not working either. Then I tried KSM, which was upside-down and unresponsive. I had to reset. Last edited by jlynton; 10-11-2014 at 10:15 AM. |

I reckon it's dahlia? [Edit: I just remembered tshering was already aware of that when he pointed toward a fix for the screen rotation.]
Code:
# cat /bin/kobo_config.sh #!/bin/sh PCB=`ntx_hwconfig -s -p /dev/mmcblk0 PCB` case $PCB in E60610D*) echo trilogy;; E60QB*) echo kraken;; E606B*) echo kraken;; E5061*) echo pixie;; E606C*) echo dragon;; E606G*) echo dahlia;; E606F*) echo phoenix;; *) echo trilogy;; esac Code:
# ntx_hwconfig -s -p /dev/mmcblk0 PCB E606G0 Code:
# /bin/kobo_config.sh dahlia Last edited by Frenzie; 10-11-2014 at 10:39 AM. |

Ah, I'd assumed everything would be in the source tarballs. Thank you.

test: Qt touch driver
I do not have kobo H2O.
but using this post, I changed qt touch driver. who want to test, copy file libKoboTS.so to folder: #kobolauncher /.kobo/vlasovsoft/Qt/plugins/mousedrivers/ and or #Kobo Start Menu /.kobo/kbmenu/Qt/plugins/mousedrivers/ note: compatible with kobo glo (original and multitouch). New Version use at your own risk Last edited by Cecell3000; 12-03-2014 at 01:01 PM. |

I wish the sources were in a Git repository or some such.
But more important, it's working! Now I'll be off to have a look at KOReader. |
