Scheduler failure running Astroberry on RPi4

I have just started to use the scheduler so this could be my error but I'm not sure what's wrong or how to fix it.

The last four times I have been imaging I have used the scheduler so that I can actually get some sleep. Each time I have gotten the same error that ends the imaging session. This happens even though the session isn't complete (last night it was on image 88 of 120) Below are the last several lines from the log file.

If it matters, I am using an HEQ5 (EQMOD driver), ASI178mm imaging camera, and SSAG autoguider. I'm running Astroberry on a 4GB Rpi4 and accessing it via VNC (faster response)

It is an X11 error. It looks like out of memory trying to create an object. Perhaps you should try it using a client rather than the VNC viewer. It may make a difference.
