I think I have the correct log for you.
I am using Ubuntu studio on both 32 and 64 bit machine . Both will not connect to the DSI in Ekos using the meade driver int he dropdown list.I have attache the log file.
With the DSI plugged in I then went to the start button in ekos to open my profile. I only have the Meade DSI in my profile.

There appears to be something wrong with your installation. The DSI driver is missing a symbol, which is likely caused by a missing library. Did you install indi via apt or dpkg? That shouldn't allow this to happen.

Can you post the output of the following command:
ldd $(which indi_dsi_ccd)

Thanks,
Ben

What version of ubuntu studio are you using? The output of "lsb_release -a" would help.

How did you install the dsi driver? Was it via Jasem's PPA?

Thanks,
Ben

I'm stumped as to why you're having issues. I was able to install the DSI driver on ubuntu 18.04 (x84_64 using docker) and it works fine. Have you tried doing an "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade"?

Thanks,
Ben

Hi again,
I am revisiting this issue as I would like to operate the dsi for Photometry. I am still having no luck in connecting the DSI to Ekos.

lsusb shows the camera is connecting to usb, but when trying to connect the dsi in kstars I get the following error returned:

" 2020-09-10T09:46:01: [INFO] Unable to find DSI. Has the firmware been loaded?" and the "Red connection light" shows in "INDI control Panel-KStars"

Any help to sort this out would be appreciated.

One thing that I notice is that you're using a 32-bit version of indi. Is this intentional? I can't think of why this wouldn't work, but it seems strange (given that the D430 has a 64-bit capable processor).
