Skywatcher NEQ6 Pro tracking issue

Skywatcher NEQ6 Pro tracking issue was created by Luca Gervasi

Hi!
I have a strange issue lately with my NEQ6 (indi_eqmod). It seems that, even if i (supposedly) correctly polar aligned it, my mount is not "tracking" as I expect it would.
My stars are strips even at 30 seconds exposures and when I try higher exposures, i got this: on astrometry .
I suspect I have something badly configured on kstars and or indi_eqmod.
May you please point me to some debug information or hints?

Thanks
Luca

The fact that the stars are short straight lines and not curved seems to suggest that this is a tracking error, not a polar alignment error. Just before starting INDI you can click the Logs button to enable logging.
