Aura H2O Yet another telnet/sshd & misc tools package...

[NiLuJe]

I've finally moved evtest, evemu & cURL in there .

Note that evtest isn't symlinked, because Kobo ships with the bb version. If you can't be bothered to type the full path, evemu-record will do the same job .

[frostschutz]

they ship some (ancient?) flavor of evtest, it's not busybox though
and it prints all crazy coordinates for the touchscreen :-)

no idea how to use it even if it works.
I pretty much just re-implemented evtest in shellscript (the part that I care about)

Got my wires crossed w/ Kindle then .

And, oh, wow, is it useless indeed .

[NiLuJe]

The latest version includes slight modifications to the USBNet script, of relevance for people who might want to plug multiple devices to the same computer: the NIC portion of the MAC address is now based on the device model & S/N, instead of using 00:00:00.

(And it's also now truly standalone, it previously relied on either nickel being alive, or PLATFORM being set in the env).

Whatever it is it's pretty useless. :P

While updating to libfuse3 for sshfs, I somehow remembered that Kobo kernels don't ship with FUSE enabled.

Because sshfs is fun, I tried to see if I could get FUSE modules to build & actually behave on Kobo...

So, after a bit of tinkering, here it is.

For now, I'm only attaching stuff that I could test myself. There's a vague chance the H2O modules will work on other Mk. 5 devices. Same for other Mk. 7 devices with the Forma ones.

This should be unpacked to / (and I do mean / ), allowing you to use insmod to load the fuse.ko module (via its full absolute path, because Kobo's allergic to modutils).

These were built straight from the Linux kernel sources made available by Kobo, with a GCC 4.9 TC (in a vague attempt to match Kobo's current TC, which, it turns out, they're not actually using for kernels. Oh, well. ).

@NiLuJe just got a clara hd. so pleased to find you here too.

hi to all the other devs. I've been gathering info today in prep for arrival

[momijizukamori]

Poking my head in mostly so hopefully it shows up in search for other people - I got the package installed on a Kobo Glo (FW 4.19.14123) without it breaking anything obvious, and while I haven't tested everything (and, uh, probably won't), the python3 binary (which was my main motivator) looks good in a basic hello-world test! Thanks so much for this, and all your other Kobo packages.

[NiLuJe]

Yeah, there isn't really anything to break, to be honest, which is nice, for once ^^.

But do give me a shout if you find something wonky .

[momijizukamori]

Will do! Also if you've got any testing scripts I can run, I'm happy to do so, I'm just crap at writing tests myself - I spent like an hour last night trying to figure out why I wasn't getting any output from my py3 test before realizing relative path for output = the test messages were printing somewhere off hidden in root, probably. Absolute paths solved the problem, heh.

[NiLuJe]

On that note, the bundled ZSH config moves root's HOME to a non-stupid location .

hello i'm looking for a use a browser-based application on my kobo h20 my problem is that the internal browser does not support localstorage suddenly i can't be used the application i guess the kobo store uses some kind of localstorage to preferences I tried a lot of things without succeeding too much kvncviewer m displays a half screen for 30 seconds I guess we can change the link address for kobo it is a local network on a boat and an application which allows to postpone the data of the on-board computer all open source I have successfully modified an application in sessionstorage and it works moderately not being a developer you explained if you have an idea thank you very much

[NiLuJe]

This has nothing to do with this, so, create a dedicated thread?

And try a search first, people may have already tried a few things with the browser (I wouldn't hold my breath, though, it's a pretty ancient webkit version).

(Also, punctuation helps. Walls of unreadable lowercase text won't help your cause.)
