Jasem,
As per your most recent suggestion "INDI is not installed correctly therefore the driver in not properly linked to the INDI base library. Please reinstall INDI on your maschine."

Removing .....
Then i checked what was left in /usr/bin ---- the indi* files were still there, so I cut them and pasted them into the /home
Same for /usr/share/indi folder.
Then as per
indilib.org/download/ubuntu.html
I installed with the commands:
~$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mutlaqja/ppa
Latest INDI Library and drivers!
More info:
launchpad.net/~mutlaqja/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
Press [ENTER] to continue or ctrl-c to cancel adding it

OK
~$ sudo apt-get update

In the /usr/bin/
there were only indi files which appear to be third parter.
There was no indiserver or indi_lx*
In the /usr/share/indi folder there were .xml files
Then I used
~$ sudo apt-get install libindi1
This added the indi_lx and other drivers plus the indiserver to /usr/bin
and apparently nothing extra in /usr/share/indi
Then I used the Indi web Manager from my PC to start the indiserver on the RPI3, aligned the LX-90, started KStars on the PC, used Device manager Client to connect to the RPI3. It worked.
CONCLUSION:
on the
indilib.org/download/ubuntu.html page where it says:
To Install
only INDI Library:
~$ sudo apt-get install libindi1
To Install INDI Library
including all 3rd party drivers:
~$ sudo apt-get install indi-full
To install latest Ekos:
~$ sudo apt-get install indi-full kstars-bleeding
It should say:
To Install
only INDI Library: FIRST
~$ sudo apt-get install libindi1
To Install INDI Library ONLY 3rd party drivers: SECOND
~$ sudo apt-get install indi-full
To install latest Ekos AND INDI Library AND INDI 3rd party drivers
~$ sudo apt-get install libindi1 indi-full kstars-bleeding
(I have not tested this last command.)
My problems occured because of the misleading instructions which resulted in not installing the indiserver and needed indi_lx200gps driver.
