In older versions, you could select how KStars obtained the date/time, which you could define for GPS to update.
You went to the Settings -> Configure KStars -> INDI



Now, that option is no longer there. Is KStars automagically using GPS if you have GPSD or similar configured as a device?
I have spent over an hour looking for this setting to see if it has been moved, but unless I overlooked it, it is no longer there.
How do you specify now which option(s) KStars/INDI should use.

Just upgraded to 3.7.1 stable on an StellarMate X update on two different (actually 3) mini PCs.

The screen where it used to be all look like this for the INDI settings.



The RPi4 running 3.7.1 Stable also is the same.

It used to be like this



At first I thought it might be because I had to re-install on one device and the GPSD hasn't been enabled on an equipment definition yet, but the other two devices are running an upgrade that already has used the GPS.

OK, in 2.7.1 it apparently has moved.
I submitted a ticket over on StellarMate (since that is what I use instead of a self-rolled system) and Jasem responded that it was now in the Ekos Mount tab.
I have't had a chance to use the rigs due to weather since the upgrade (and actually for weeks before that) and so really could not fully investigate that easily.
Looking through the simulator setup nothing jumped out at me.

For those that go hunting for it.
It is in your EKOS panel under your mount information.
I could not find it until I actually had a valid profile loaded.
