[Kstars-devel] status of INDI devices

Hi, I have a Celestron NexStar 114GT telescope. I've built the cable to
attach it to the personal computer.

The telescope works with the supplied software, a little program for
windows where you select the object from a list and the telescope points
to it.

I can also access the telescope from minicom and give simple commands to it.

The cvs of kstars should support my telescope (nexstar driver) but, when 
I select the options in the wizard, the INDI driver closes the control 
panel and I can't connect to the telescope. The exact error message is:
INDI: agent closed connection

I can see the panel for very few seconds and, I think it *should* be 
connecting, I can see the green lights. But, as stated before, the panel 
suddenly disapperas with the above error.

Is there some log or way to track the problem?

Thank you
Alessio Sangalli
