My system is not able to recognize the filter wheel. I tried to run indiserver as root, but without success.

Features of the system:
- Operating System Linux: Ubuntu 15.10
- Filter Wheel: FLI CFW-8

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

    Is your FLI FW detected on USB? After pluggin in the FW, run 'lsusb' and 'dmesg' to find out if it was detected. Is the FLI DKMS driver installed successfully? One issue about FLI is that they still use a kernel driver and not libusb and this obviously causes issues as the kernel is updated.

    Hello Jasen,
    I think I've solved by creating a new fliusb-modules.deb, starting from fliusb-source source, and by using module-assistant.
    The problem was in fliusb.c file (in ubuntu the scatterlist.h file is present only in /usr/src/ker_version/include/linux/scatterlist.h and not in /.../asm/)
    Thank you
    Emanuele

    Thanks, it is fixed now in SVN. I presume everything else (CCD/FW/Focuser) is working OK in INDI? We don't get a lot of feedback on FLI.
