Hi,

I've just installed indilib on Arch Linux with Kstars and Gphoto2 libraries.

Having read through the supported CCD's, Pentax cameras are supported however, it seems the K1 and mkII versions are not supported.

I also tried connecting my camera then invoking the indi server from command line (I put the camera into PTP mode), this is the result I got:

$ indiserver indi_pentax_ccd
2021-08-06T09:00:43: startup: indiserver indi_pentax_ccd 
2021-08-06T09:00:43: Driver indi_pentax_ccd: Number of cameras detected: 1.
2021-08-06T09:00:43: Driver indi_pentax_ccd: Detected camera model USB PTP Class Camera on port usb:003,010
2021-08-06T09:00:43: Driver indi_pentax_ccd: Failed to find model USB PTP Class Camera in supported cameras.
2021-08-06T09:00:43: Driver indi_pentax_ccd: Falling back to generic name.


Would this be an easily added device or would one have to write a driver for it?

Thanks.
