Hi
I am having a similar problem as Gambol originally posted to commence this thread.
I am totally new to the rasp pi and OpenPlotter so any proposed solutions I respectfully request be step by step please.
I have a pi4 (4gb) and BerryGPS-IMU V4 installed as a hat. Both were purchased in the last week.
I have used the latest OpenPlotter Basic image per the website and followed all the instructions. All installs and updates went without a hitch.
I am able to get a correct GPS position on OpenCPN with an external antenna but I have to go outside my house to get it.
I am getting a barometric pressure reading and it displays on the dashboard ok
But that's all I get.
Just like Gambol, while in Pypilot (compass only) I do not get my BerryIMU discovered. It just says Auto Discover. There does not appear to be any way to configure an IMU with Pypilot that I can find at least.
I2cdectect reveals the IMU sensors addresses OK.
I purchased the BerryGPS-IMU V4 because they have a good name and the new Moitissier Hat does not appear to be on the market yet.
I appreciate any assistance to move this project forward so I can install on my boat.
Thank you
Edit: I should have added... I am not using headless mode.
Also the magnetometer being used is the LSM9DS0. It's data sheet can be found here.

I too have been seeing this exact same issue. It seemed to start after an update. Everything was working fine until I switched from Autopilot to Compass Only. After that I get nothing from the IMU but pressure (I have GPS from another source). Switching back to Autopilot makes no difference. I am using the Berry IMUv3, but I saw the exact same issue with the BerryGPS-IMU as well. Pypilot only shows "Auto Discover". It is maddening.
