Test of the latest dmg with my gear on a MacBook Pro (Big Sur)
Everything connect and work : dome, focuser, power PPBA2, scope, guider and imager.
The guider is simply looping while the imager records frames.
No problem with the Find dialog
I'm ready for further testing if needed
Thanks Rob

The Observatory button is still not showing up on latest OSX Nightly.

It's not yet enabled yet. Maybe in 1-2 weeks as we have more work to do in migrating more components to the new system.

Thanks Jasem. I tested out the latest build tonight and had success. I didn't test the scheduler, and I didn't test an automated meridian flip, but everything else was flawless.

1. No crashes all night long.
2. ASI camera never disconnected
3. Moonlite Litecrawler worked perfectly (both rotation and focus)
4. Autoguiding was smooth - stable at 0.35 to 0.4 arc seconds with the C11 using an OAG.
5. Nexdome stayed synced to the scope throughout the night,
6. AAG Cloudwatcher ran well.
7. Autofocus was quick and accurate using the new Linear 1 pass. Loved it!

Thanks everyone who's been working hard on this!

The issues I listed were mostly long ago problems that have been fixed over time. It was just nice to see everything working again.

Thanks for the help!

One question: I´m using KStars 3.6.0 in a Raspberry Pi 3, and ZWO Camera drivers crashes on start. How can I update to 3.6.1 from git? Is there any tutorial to compile? Do you know when will be available to update using "apt-get upgrade"?

Regards.

This is (likely) not an issue of kstars, but of INDI, especially the libasi from indi-3rdparty. Make sure that one is the latest version that includes libASICamera2.so.1.26

Thanks for the quick reply, but I am not sure about how to check or update indi-3rd party. Could you give me some tips?

Not really, as my Pis run an RPM-based distro. I hope others will chime in there...
