I'm playing around with Indi, it looks great but I got into troubles in connecting the mount with EQMod.
Local Mode: AZEQ6 mount > EQDIRECT-USB > Local Ubuntu laptop with indi and Kstars => eqmod connection OK
Client Server Mode: AZEQ6 mount > EQDIRECT-USB > Ubuntu laptop with indi server on network > Ubuntu laptop with kstars and Eko => eqmod connection OK
Client Server Mode with Raspberry 2: AZEQ6 mount > EQDIRECT-USB > Raspberry 2 with indi server on network > Ubuntu laptop with kstars and Eko => eqmod connection KO
So the mount and the EQDirect cable are working well.
The logs
On Raspberry with Raspbian image:
