Hello,

I've the exact same problem on an Ubuntu 20.10, with the last kstars/indi from the stable repo. (3.5.3 / 1.9.0)
When I connect the eqmod driver, I seems to connect (all the tabs appears, and looks good) then one or two seconds later, it crashs.

I've attached a logfile. It seems to have a connection issue at line 523. It also complains the port is already used sometime, but it's not the case

I tested the same mount/cable on a Macos with the last kstars (3.5.3 with indi 1.9.0 embedded) ... it works perfectly well.
I tested the indinighly PPA ... (indi 1.9.1) and have the same problem.
I've to admit I had some issue on linux with all my "serial" device since upgrading to 1.9.0 (for example my PPBA powerbox is hard to connect sometimes...)

I never had any issue with the same ubuntu with indi 1.8.x.

Don't hesitate to ask me anything needed to find the problem.

Anthony.
