I am using a Rock64 Pi copy with Debian and kstars ecos. It seems to run two cameras filter wheel and mount fine through a targus hub without the power . Runs the Osc ,guide camera and mount direct USB fine without the hub on a 2amp Li battery.

In the previous old Ubuntu laptop with less memory, the osc colour files when looping or displaying slowed the system and so I think the full display of each image chews up available memory and I was was forced to set the system to skip display of each full osc image while imaging .

I have noticed that any change in the method of network control during a session creates chaos. Direct Ethernet or wireless network connection through a router using VNC control is more stable.

Possibly, If I could wirelessly connect a large enough touch screen for direct control of the Rock64 that would avoid any latency problems and make the system network free. Expensive though.
