Hello!

I'll start by thanking the developers of this awesome software package!

I was having issues in connecting an EQMod compatible equipment but finally solved it, so I want to share it since the may need some attention.
By the way, I'm an absolute zero in linux.

I was connecting my EQStar Pro (cool GoTo kit from Astro-gadget), but the INDI was always presenting an error.
After multiple attempts, trying different drivers (Synscan, syscan legacy, etc...) I dumped into a old forum where some people had problems with a GPS device.
I don't even have a GPS, but gave it a try and it worked.
The solution was to type the command:

sudo systemctl stop gpsd gpsd.socket

In other forums I found that this gps issue has been giving headaches since at least 2012...

Many thanks for all the great help!
