Bugger, was hoping to make use of the fitpc2 I had here. Will have to put it to some other use in that case.
Thanks for the fast assistance with this one.
Can mark this as resolved

Hi,

Hoping someone can help.
I'm trying to run Ekos with camera on Ubuntu Mate

Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS
Release:	18.04
Codename:	bionic

I've attached a picture of what is happening. When I try to connect the camera if just says connect in yellow. There is no error log. I've tried both Gphoto and Canon DLSR options.
Now the odd thing is I can take an image capture with gphoto2, but only when I'm using root permissions.

dan@astromate-SBC-FITPC2:~/.indi$ sudo gphoto2 --capture-image-and-download
New file is in location /capt0000.jpg on the camera
File capt0000.jpg exists. Overwrite? [y|n] y
Saving file as capt0000.jpg
Deleting file /capt0000.jpg on the camera

My installs from repo are:

Is this possibly a permission issue with gphoto2?
I checked permissions against an install on RPi3 with astroberry and they are the same. The camera connects fine with Astroberry installation on the RPi
My gphoto2 versions are different however: Ubuntu mate versions are:

I've attached the logs from ekos.
With the connect issue I get the same yellow connect issue with both Canon DSLR selected and Gphoto

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
