Hello,
I have a SBIG ST8XME with dual chip, a CFW9 filter wheel and adaptative optics AO8. The fact is that with the latest updates in Ekos, the guide tab has changed the presentation.

Now I can't find how to select if you guide with the motors of the mount or with the AO8.

Does anyone know how?

Thanks in advance.

HI,
Sorry for my delay in answering. After some trial and error, I have successfully installed Kstars 3.5.2 Beta and indi 1.8.8.
But installing 3rd party drivers from:
github.com/indilib/indi-3rdparty
I have managed to install EQMOD but with SBIG, the error is the following:

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ~/Projects/indi-3rdparty/indi-sbig

Any ideas.

Hi,
I need some help about this problem.

I am trying to install latest kstars acording this post:

indilib.org/forum/general/210-howto-buil...st-libindi-ekos.html

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mutlaqja/ppa
sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get -y install kstars-bleeding indi-bin indi-full

But on Ubuntu 16.4 32bits or Lubuntu 18.4 32bits, kstars-bleeding it is not found.

Any one knows how to fix this problem?

I have been able to test it on a temporarily borrowed ubuntu 20.4 64 bits computer, and it install perfectly.

I need latest version because Its the one I checked that supports my SBIG AO-8 attached to ST8XME.

My old computer available for astronomy is 32bits so I can't install 20.4 Ubuntu.

Thanks in advance
