is there any way to get my kindle to work nicely in calibre without re-compiling my kernel? i'd prefer not recompiling the kernel on this box at the moment...

Unable to detect the PRS505 disk drive with Calibre 0.7.4 on Mandriva Linux 2010

Got the same problem with Calibre 0.7.4 on Mandriva Linux 2010 64-bit. Last time I used calibre, it worked (with the 0.5 version and a different version of Mandriva).

I should have the right version of SYSFS though:

$ grep SYSFS_DEPRECATED /boot/config-`uname -r`
# CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 is not set


$ calibre-debug -d
Version: 0.7.4

DeviceError: Unable to detect the PRS505 disk drive. Your kernel is probably exporting a deprecated version of SYSFS.

By the way, congratulations for adding lots of features. The installation was also a breeze. Just used the python command from the calibre web site. It installed without problem and at the first run it updated all my e-book collection (from the time I was using the 0.5 version). I am just missing the part where I can connect my PRS-505 now.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks.

Marc

Does this thread help? Sounds like a similar problem.

No. Mandriva's kernels have the proper settings but the PRS won't work with Calibre.

See https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=59878 and http://bugs.calibre-ebook.com/ticket/5923#comment:3
