[Kstars-devel] SLEW does not work correctly

[bnc]

Hi,
An update.
I think this problem is to do with the time somehow, so I changed the
indi device update from computer to device.
Now when I issue a slew from kstars, the slew still fails but now the
goto still works from the scopes hand paddle.
I thought the problem might have been because I did not have my system
clock set to UTC. So did that and the time is good. i.e. the LT is set
correctly by the NTP server.
However, the slew still does not work.

I also notice that when I move my cursor around kstars the RA/DEC info
box no longer gets updated? 
Thanks,
Brian
