At this point, I'm not sure there would be a point to trying further. The Windows installer worked instantly in a WinXP virtual machine in both of my computers. A little googling shows that even many users of Ubuntu (for which there is an installation package have found Calibre difficult to install; I assume that the Ubuntu package is meant to work in your Kubuntu as well. At the moment, I feel well served by VirtualBox.
There is a package? Who knew? I just install from the command line per the web site: As root: python -c "import urllib2; exec urllib2.urlopen('http://status.calibre-ebook.com/linux_installer').read(); main()" Take all the defaults. Run the welcome script. Done. Why in gods name would you run a virtual machine for one package that works perfectly when run natively? -- _____________________________________ At one time I had a Real Sig.
