I’m waiting too! Tried installing all the tweaks to get it running but it was messy and I had to factory reset and don’t want to do it again.

They seem to release a new version every month?

More or less once a month, yes. But you can simply install it as is, and then overwrite .adds/koreader with a recent nightly from http://build.koreader.rocks/download/nightly/

For testing on my Libra Colour, I used the install script and the OCP-KOReader-v2024.04.zip to do the basic install and then unpacked the latest nightly (think it was -32) over the koreader install directory before safely ejecting. After the install finished, I used the KFMon-uninstaller to remove KFMon. So far, my limited testing hasn't seen any issues.

I click "run with powershell" on the script and it opens a window and instantly closes while doing nothing. I have unblocked it in properties.

Have you placed the install.ps1 script in the same directory as the installer .zip file you downloaded from the link in the first message in this thread?

You might want to try opening a PS session and running the script in there so you can see any errors messages that may be generated.

If I run the install.ps1 script without any other files in it's directory, the first complaint is that it can't find a mounted Kobo ereader.

Couldn't find a Kobo eReader volume! Is one actually mounted?

Quick question (I apologize if this is not the place): is there a way to change in KOReader the sensitivity/thickness activation area for the swipe gestures? Sometimes I swipe to turn pages near-ish the bottom of the screen and ends up activating the action I set for "swipe left from the bottom".

Thank you!

In advanced settings there's a value, DSWIPE_ZONE_BOTTOM_EDGE, which I think MIGHT do what you're looking for. If you change it, I'd be careful to note what you changed it to in case you need to restore it -- consider backing up your config files first.

The default has y = 7/8, which I means that the swipe zone is the bottom 1/8 of the screen. If you change it to something like 15/16, for example, I think from looking at the code that the bottom of screen swipe region will be half the size since it's the last 1/16 of the screen instead of the bottom 1/8 of the screen.
