Kobo Utilities checks the database before it does a backup so you cannot have a corrupt backup.

Yeah, I'm not really sure that the database 'gradually' corrupting makes much sense. Either it passes an integrity check or it doesn't.

And also, I've found that the database check doesn't catch all the corruption. I think some of the corruption leaves the database structure intact but scrambles the data itself. I've wondered if it could check for the wal and shm files for both databases and abort if either exists. Or maybe it does already and that's not enough? Idunno. |

Does anyone know how to check for the existence of a given file using wildcards in Linux? |

In linux wildcard notation, .kobo/{BookReader,KoboReader}.sqlite{,-shm,-wal}
I think I've tried it with nicklemenu, and it doesn't help, because these files are always open when the GUI is available. You'd have to check after USB is initiated, but before calibre's kobo driver opens the database. Last edited by compurandom; 03-16-2024 at 01:40 PM. |

As for the path, we would need to know the internal path and not the path as seen when the Kobo is connect to a computer. |

I recall from a previous Kobo device some years back, that it was possible to remove tiles from the home screen. I can't see the functionality in this plugin anymore, and searching on the web suggests it might no tbe possible with the more recent firmware (I'm now using v4.38). Is this correct? I've tried the Kobo main and extended driver, but can't see any options to dismiss or add tiles.
