Try using INDI V4L2 CCD driver with it and see if that works.

Thanks for your quick response!

The V4L2 CCD driver picks up the laptop's integrated webcam, but not the LPI-G. There's only a /dev/video0 in the devices directory (also the webcam) and "lsusb" does not show the LPI-G's presence at all. The only indication I have that it's connected and communicating is the "dmesg" snippet I quoted above...

Then it's not supported. Sorry about that. Find out if you can control it from any other Linux app. If not, then ask manufacturer for SDK to access camera or provide INDI driver for it.

So Meade says the only software they have for it is Windows based, and that it is ASCOM compliant. I can't tell whether they're talking about their drivers or the hardware itself. Does this suggest a path forward (or suggest that I should throw in the towel?)
