Update and lingering issue - I was able to work on this issue intermittently over the last few days. I checked the dialout group and my user was indeed already included. What ended up fixing my serial connections was to follow the instructions from the website ask Ubuntu . Admittedly, I don't fully understand why this worked other than there seemed to be a product ID conflict and commenting this out did allow me to connect to my devices via /dev/ttyusb0,1,2,3...

Here is the solution :
1) Edit /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/85-brltty.rules
2) Search for this line and comment it out: ENV{PRODUCT}=="1a86/7523/*", ENV{BRLTTY_BRAILLE_DRIVER}="bm", GOTO="brltty_usb_run"
3) Reboot


LINGERING ISSUE - I still cannot get my QHY183c to be recognized by Ekos. When I start the service in Kstars Device manager I see the following:

When I run lsusb in terminal it doesn't recognize the device as QHY, it's seeing it as Cypress WestBridge. I did read that there could be an issue with the fxload file. So I downloaded the latest SDK from QHY's Linux support page for arm64. I decompressed it and found the fxload and replace my /sbin/fxload, but that did not work.

Has anyone else had this issue?
