Greetings,
I had almost a month of clouded in sky's in December so I didn't get the opportunity to run my telescope. When I did last night I discovered that the alignment sofware has changed and now instead of the Astrometry option I have the wonderful stellarsolver instead. This keeps locking up and refusing to solve.

Is there a way I can install the version of Kstars/Ekos that used the previous version alignment? Preferably the version just before you released stellarsolver.

I had my Astrometry settings to where I could plate solve in less then 15 seconds most time.

I can install the stock Ubuntu Kstars but its way older and the interface is more difficult to use.

Thank you,
Wayne Hilliard

Have you set the Field Of View correctly, or close to that?

I haven't even had the chance to test it on the stars yet. Maybe tonight for a few hours.

Yes I have not sure what the problem is. Could be resource based maybe not enough memory. I'll keep experimenting.

You may need to tell it where to find the index files - it ues the same ones as astrometry.net
