Hi,
I installed INDI drivers and kstars. Had kstars working with my mount (Celestron AVX) and camera (Canon 70D). Tried a few things indoors and was very happy. I then invoked kstars this pm and started getting a hard crash after a few seconds. I have rebooted and tried, reinstalled and tried...still crashes. When I run from the command line, I get the results appended below. What am I doing wrong? Thank you. Larry

OK,
Just after posting this, I noticed in the xterm session that kstars was looking for an object that it could not find. I re-opened and quickly clicked the mouse in empty space and it works fine for two sessions anyway.
