Anybody seen this. I am running Kstars on a Raspberry Pi 4, I access the Rpi using VPN on a laptop, in my garage connected over ethernet. But I also have an Android Tablet, that I use at the scope, just to view the screen output (for example; while I am focusing). The tablet is USB port connected to a spare USB port on the RPI. Yesterday I had to switch to a new tablet, the old one became unreliable (they both are inexpensive 7" models). I did nothing different, just connected the tablet using USB tethering and added the correct address into the VNC viewer on the tablet.

Today, my CGEM mount would not connect. After searching around I found that the CGEM....xml file in the .indi folder had been changed; the port went from ttyUSB0 to ttyUSB1.
I did not make this change, what can make this change in the xml file??

I reset the .xml file and now everything is working again. But I don't know if this will happen again.

thanks for any responses.
