Same here! I lost connectivity to my ZWO camera, the SX guide camera attached to it, and also my Cloudwatcher weather system. Jasem said he would take a peak at the AAG Cloudwatcher NG issue - but I do not know if he is aware that the ZWO driver is also affected.

Same issues here too, with EQMOD and Pegasus UPB drivers, spoke to Jasem about it but does not seem to think there is an issue as he can’t replicate….my system is totally un useable and two nights gone wasted….

It seems to me that it does not like using the Remote option and INdI server in ekos, when running it all from the same machine…..but if you use the local option with no INdI server, the crashes are still there but less frequent….

The driver crashes consistently here but not until a connect is attempted.
I deleted the .xml config file and it crashes before a default one can be created.
Only have the one library effective and it has been in place since before the weekend nightly update.

With the build problems being discussed in other threads perhaps we are getting partial updates?

libasi asi latest is 1.19 ...

try this

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y install --reinstall libasi

I tried that, still throws GPFs.

I may uninstall the INDI-FULL and purge-ppa and re-install everything and see if that helps.

Hi
Same with the stable indi:

Ok, two things to try.

1. Compile from source and see if that makes any difference.
2. Use older libasi. Problem is I can operate both ASI cameras here on x86-64 and arm32 without any issues. So it's highly unlikely it's a libasi issue, but it could depend on the camera model.

I build INDI and KStars from source. I pulled the latest from git yesterday, rebuilt all, and am having no problems on my 64-bit Rasperry Pi installation. I have two ASI cameras, an ASI1600MM Pro, and an ASI290MM Mini.

I normally run indiserver in my /etc/rc.local, and have Ekos setup as "remote", even though it's on the same machine. I do this so I can either connect KStars/Ekos locally, and use VNC, or run KStars/Ekos remotely on my laptop.

So I don't know if this helps narrow down the issue to a packaging issue, rather than a source code issue, or not.

Hi
OK
Built latest indi-core and indi-asi and libasi 3rd party from git.
Still the same error.
Any ideas?
TIA

**EDIT but works OK for the zwo120mm mini
Is this the end of the road for the old asi cameras?
Where can we gat the old libasi?
Cheers

I have no idea how to "build from source".  Are there step by step directions of what to type, that does not assume Linux programming skills?
