Moitessier HAT developers abandon users

Worst of all, no driver updates for Debian bullseye have been released leaving hundreds of users with expensive useless devices. We had a great partnership with the developers from the beginning and this makes the ending that much sadder.

We have always tried to open source all software and hardware from the start without success. Despite the fact that the developers preferred to keep it closed and proprietary, we decided to support it because it was a great product. This has turned out to be a big mistake. Lesson learned.

The current situation goes against all the principles that we promote in OpenMarine so here we are, hacking the project that we ourselves have helped to create...

Following this manual you will be able to run your Moitessier HAT 1 and 2 in OpenPlotter 3.x.x. No more drivers, no more bricked devices after an update:

Hacking the Moitessier HAT 1/2

Sad reason, but a spot-on solution. Works like a charm. Hats off, Sailoog!
