I'm in the early stages of getting KSTARS working.
I have the KSTARS package installed on an Intel laptop running openSUSE Tumbleweed.
I have a Meade LXD75 head connected via serial cable/USB to the laptop, and a Canon 5D DSLR connected via a USB cable.
I have a KSTARS profile set up with the Meade head connecting via LX200 drivers (it may work!) and Canon DSLR as the CCD.
When I run KSTARS, I cannot connect anything; KSTARS doesn't even try.
1: In EKOS, item 3 labelled "Connect and Disconnect Devices", everything is greyed out
2: The INDI control panel icon is greyed out
3: I do not see a tty device for the Canon camera
What am I missing? Do I need to installed Linux drivers for the Canon camera. In Backyard EOS there are two protocols for connecting with a Canon camera, an older protocol and a protocol valid after 2008. Does KSTARS accept either or neither?
