Dear all,

I cannot take pictures/preview with the above mentioned camera in Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS following the instructions from indilib.org/ccds/toupcam-cameras.html. In the client software (kstars & ccdciel) I always get a timeout error. When running in a windows VM with the Omegon software it works.

Sadly I didn't find anything to solve my problem, so any help/hint is appreciated.

Kind regards
Jörg
