Hello,

I have been having problems) with the Hanlin V5 driver. I have a BeBook
Mini. I was getting DeviceErrors and traced it to the device main memory
being returned as None. main should have been "/dev/sdc" and carda
should have been None, but they were switched.

Below I will refer to classes in src/calibre/devices/hanlin/driver.py.

The HANLINV3 class contains a linux_swap_drives (and
windows_sort_drives) that changes the order of the drives. HANLINV5
inherits this, but actually needs a do-nothing linux_swap_drives (and
windows_sort_drives, I suppose). I notice that the BOOX class also
overrides HANLINV3 with do-nothing methods.

I added the do-nothing methods to a branch on LP,
lp:~joelkoerwer/calibre/jfk-trunk.

I also added chm and djvu to the list of Hanlin V5 formats, though it
supports many others that are still not listed.

Questions:
Can anyone confirm or contradict that the HANLINV5 needs to override the
HANLINV3 behavior?
Can anyone confirm that the HANLINV3 needs the reordering?

Thanks,
Joel
