Mike, there are a couple of ways to do this... I'm a bit pressed for time so I'll try to follow-up later with more details. But...MikeWest wrote: ↑Sun Jun 16, 2019 2:51 am Great write-up, thanks! So far I managed to get StellarMate loaded on the RPi successfully, and can talk to it with my Android phone and also via VNC on my home network. I bought a 7" monitor that works, which is driving me crazy currently and has pretty much stopped progress. It is supposed to be an 800x480 display panel, which is what Raspbian says it is. However StellarMate insists on running at 1920x1080 which as you can imagine on a 7" monitor that is pretty much unusable. VNC handles it fine though. The panel does not seem to support the resolution advertisement that would let StellarMate know what other resolutions are available. I tried editing the hdmi entries in config.txt to force it into a better resolution, but no success. When the rain stops, I plan to connect the monitor and my ASI 120MC (I already pushed the compatible firmware to it) and start testing the goto and imaging functions.
Clear Skies!

ANOTHER method is to run raspi-config (open a Terminal and run 'sudo raspi-config' ... you'll need the root password which defaults to 'smate' if you have haven't changed it. From there you can find an advanced options menu which a choice that lets you edit the screen resolution.
