Hello,
I upgraded my Kobo Glo to Software 2.6.1.
When I now connect it to my computer (Linux) using USB, I first get the usual:
"Computer detected. Connect/Abort"
When I had choosen "Connect" in the past, I had gotten a Mass storage connection.
But now I get on the Kobo:
[translated from my German Kobo]
"Visit our Website
Keep your eReader connected to the PC and download Kobo desktop here:
www.kobosetup.com"
That's it - the device is not seen by my Linux system as before.
This means no connection also to calibre.
How do I get the USB mass storage connection back ?
Is this a firmware bug ?
Do I need to change some settings ?
Is my hardware on the PC side somehow broken ?
Or is Kobo trying to lock me in with the new firmware ?
I did a sync right now. It seemed it found another SW update ("downloading" on the display) But this stuck. After reseting (pressing pinhole button), it booted and synced, but found no update.
Right now I'm feeling confused and quite annoyed...
Regards
Martin
