Yeah, I’m also on a Mac. There’s a setting which prevents Safari from opening files after download.

How do I better use the reboot function? I used ower:reboot, and it does what it says, but can I do something like a clear screen or similar at the same time? Because right now the device just kind of freezes until I see the boot screen.

That is what you would expect from an eInk device. Until the screen is written to, the contents won't change. You could try a toast with rebooting but not sure how well that would work.-

You can use a script to display a message but the way I do it you need to install NickelDBus. The screen still freezes but it freeezes with the message so you know it has actually started the reboot.

You can do a toast with a chained NM command too.

Yeah I tried that in NickelMenu but I could not get it work.
I believe NickelMenu works how it should as a menu selection option? Last edited by Rid; 04-27-2024 at 02:22 AM. |

Hi, sorry if this question has already been asked. I went back awhile in this thread and didn't see anyone posting about this. Has anyone tried installing Koreader on the new Clara B&W, and did it work? Thanks.

You may want to check the One-Click Install Packages for KOReader & Plato thread from page 69 onwards. |

I found NickelMenu on my Kobo Libra Colour caused sluggish instability with WiFi. The password for the saved network needed to be input every time I wanted to access the internet, too. Now to be fair, I also had problems before I installed Nickelmenu in that my LC wouldn’t see 5GHz networks, so maybe my unit is defective, but once I removed Nickelmenu, the WiFi instability went away and passwords were retained. (I still can’t see any 5GHz networks, tho) |

That is almost certainly a coincidence... Nothing NM hooks has anything to do with WiFi. |

I was also having issues with connecting to 5GHz networks over WiFi which suddenly became fixed an hour or so ago (knock on wood). It's possible this issue has been fixed due to all the reboots I've done. I really can't say. I do have a Nickelmenu question, however. Now that I've reinstalled it, and things seem to be working fine on my Kobo Libra Colour, I've noticed that I can't get telnet or ftp access because a password has been set. Does anybody know the new password for root? I've also heard that "admin" is also a user now. And where do I find that information? Thanks. |

Try admin as the user and password.

Good Morning all as I just received my first e-reader (Libra Colour) and I'm really happy. I read the first 20 pages of this thread trying to find an answer to a few questions I have and couldn't find them and well it's 86 pages and figured I could get an answer if I just asked, so here goes.
When installing Nickelmenu is it supposed to be a blank menu, there is no default menu and then you can add things to it? (I did create a one line config file to get sodoku as none of the games are there anymore and it worked) Also, the config file shows up in MyBooks, is that right? I do apologize if this was asked I couldn't find it in the first 20 pages. Thank you all for all you do. -gyrene2083 |
