Hi everybody,

yesterday I disabled the FITS VIEWER, ans KSTARS EKOS crashes again.
You can read the end of the logs... some INDI PROBLEMS I suppose...

Finally, I started the INDI WEB MANAGER ON MY RASPBERRY (as local controlling the hardware), and KSTARS ON MY LAPTOP (remote), so, I COULD FINISH SUCCESFULLY MY ASTROIMAGING SESSION .

All my experiments during this week led me to think that RPI with Indi server works very well, excepts two cases:

1- If you lost communication ( wifi or cable), you will lose data ( maybe not if your files are saved in RPI )
2- Rasberry with Kstars Ekos, in my configuration, are failing ...

If you have troubles, I would like to share my experiences to solve that.
I like a lot that free software in linux are growing so fast in Astrophotography.

thanks

Guillem

p.s. New logs from yesterday ( fits viewer disabled), It sadly crashes again...

Hi Halwert,

I installed the missing libraries following your link.
Yesterday crashed again kstars at 98% of the whole task !!! not too bad, but unreliable...

Kstars/ekos was working about 3 h with no errors, but finally crashed...

the end of the logs say that: QImage: out of memory, returning null image !!!
and the FITS VIEWER was disable...

any ideas??

thanks

Guillem

Will check on MacOS today if there is any memory leaks.

No memory leaks are apparent. Please use the Activity monitor and check the RAM usage. Check if either KStars or the INDI drivers use up more memory with time.

Hi Jasem,

Yesterday memory usage was 60%-70% (RAM) and CPU 50%. I saw some SWAP usage, I don't know why... I will check it this night with the default monitor (ubuntu Mate).

With FITS Viewer disable, I only make some Zoom in and out to recent images in main Ekos tab...

I read this: www.indilib.org/forum/search.html?query=...ations&childforums=1 --> I may uninstall it !!!

Two days ago, I installed the missing packages of this 'annoying Phonon' message.
In Ubuntu Mate (not KDE) I did'nt found where to disable notifications sounds...

thanks for your help

Guillem

which programs were responsible for that? KStars? INDI driver? both? can you share screenshots or number?

Hi Jasem,
Now, I am running this test : ( During this night I can do more tests ( any more suggestions?? ))
I including this brief PDF.

thanks

Guillem

Hi Jasem,

I made more tests during night to real objects, and memory usage is about 80-90%.
Look the PDF with screenshots...

May I kill some services? this 'phonon' message at the end of the logs is getting me MAD...

thanks

Guillem

Hi Jasem,

I was taking some pictures ( Everthing was PERFECT) , but I realised that memory RAM increased up more than 800 MB, while I was doing ZOOM IN in fits viewer (main window, see attached file). I could see monitoring it with htop ...

I have FITS VIEWER disabled, but I only was observing the 'round' stars...
There is atached logs.

Now , I installed ZRAM from : github.com/novaspirit/rpi_zram

I will see whats happening...

thanks for your help,

Guillem

Hi,

Fortunately, with zram kstars - ekos didn't crashed...

but you can see on the video ( turn down the sound !!! ) how Ekos eats a lot of RAM while ZOOM IN on the captures...

clear skies !!
