Maybe the changes are not in yet.
Can you try this tgz?

tar -zxf fiusb-1.3.tgz
cd fliusb-1.3
make

there should be fliusb.ko which is what you need...

make without problem

dkms build - flawless
Module fliusb/1.3 already built for kernel 4.8.0-51-lowlatency/4

Great
Thanks for the tests!
I hope tomorrow's build will have the fix... it did not make it today...
Meanwhile you can use this kernel object.

Rumen

Sorry but I can only once click Thank You

now I must find now how to get it connected/working in Kstars - Indi

cd fliusb-1.3
sudo insmod ./fliusb.ko

Please note loading the kernel module this way will not survive reboot. So this should be done after every reboot.
To have it automatically loaded wait for the deb and install it

then start then start indi with drivers you need with sudo otherwise fli devices will not work:
sudo indiserver ...

many Thanks - will try it home after work and report ..

first attempt

vontadeo@vonTadeooooe:~$ cd /usr/src/
vontadeo@vonTadeooooe:/usr/src$ cd fliusb-1.3
vontadeo@vonTadeooooe:/usr/src/fliusb-1.3$ sudo insmod ./fliusb.ko
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module ./fliusb.ko: File exists
vontadeo@vonTadeooooe:/usr/src/fliusb-1.3$ sudo indiserver -v indi_fli_wheel
2017-05-09T22:29:14: startup: indiserver -v indi_fli_wheel
2017-05-09T22:29:14: Driver indi_fli_wheel: pid=2293 rfd=3 wfd=6 efd=7
2017-05-09T22:29:14: listening to port 7624 on fd 4

then once again

vontadeo@vonTadeooooe:/usr/src/fliusb-1.3$ sudo rmmod ./fliusb.ko
vontadeo@vonTadeooooe:/usr/src/fliusb-1.3$ sudo insmod ./fliusb.ko
vontadeo@vonTadeooooe:/usr/src/fliusb-1.3$ sudo indiserver -v indi_fli_wheel
2017-05-09T22:37:19: startup: indiserver -v indi_fli_wheel
2017-05-09T22:37:19: Driver indi_fli_wheel: pid=2501 rfd=3 wfd=6 efd=7
2017-05-09T22:37:19: listening to port 7624 on fd 4

and start Kstars - Indi - start & connect - not matter what I'm choose - shutdown server indi instance (this launched from command line) or not

no fli cfw detected

Third attempt to fix it for linux 4.8
Can you try the provided tgz.
If this does not work then it is not the KO. This is the last option I have with the KO to fix it....

sudo rmmod fliusb
cd fliusb-1.3
make
sudo insmod ./fliusb.ko

Thanks -
will report ASAP

I installed vitrual machine to test. Should be fine now see the screen shot...
and kernel is 4.8

on README it's that on /dev/ should be dir fliusbi
maybe thats wrong with "me"
