Re:Unexpected shut down of KStars and Ekos, but not Indi server
sudo apt -y install zram-config
It takes care of everything. If you currently have 4 GB of ram, this will give you close to 8 GB

Polar alignment ran perfectly and smooth (also in full screen).
Guiding ran so I started a small imaging session of 1x60s, 1x120, 1x180, 1x240 and 1x300s subs. During the 180 sub, I wanted to check the Stars on the 120 s and my messing about with the fits viewer, while guiding and taking a 180s sub, caused KStars to crash.
After restarting and reconnecting etc I tried the same imaging session again, this time leasing the poor fits viewer alone. This time no crash.
I then slewed to a New target, solved and synced and started a one hour session of 30s subs - no problems. Darks, Bias and flats afterwards without problems.
So I’ll just try not to push my 2GB RP4 too hard

I can sometimes trigger that by using the fitsviewer, and sometimes its just out of nothing...
But when a session is running, and i do not do too much clicking around its stable.

Same here. I don't remember crashing in another module, but most of the time if I play with the fits viewer, trying to zoom or touching the "default zoom" or anything related I crash 8 times out of 10. Very frustrating, so I try to do without using the zoom feature at all.

I still have random crashes on the Pi4 using nightly from 10/7. FITS viewer was open, so that could have been the problem.
Sorry, only just now saw this post from you, Jasem. I will run gdb backtrace next time that happens.
