Hello all, Has anyone had any luck getting a CPS GS 1500U working with NUT via USB. Its branded Geek Squad (don't ask) but it shows up in the USB device list as the CPS 1500U. I'm running Kubuntu Dapper with all current updates installed, Kernel 2.6.15-26-686, NUT 2.0.3. I've tried hidups and newhidups. With hidups I used port=/dev/bus/usb/001/004 which I'm sure is the UPS device but upsdrvctl says it's not a UPS. With newhidups I used port=auto like the manual says and upsdrvctl says "No matching USB/HID UPS found". I'm not sure what else to try or if this UPS will even work via USB. I'm going to try with a serial cable, but I have to dig around for one. If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, -- Matt Brei Brei Consulting -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Then we can look at the vendor product id and if it is a hid or anything else. Regards Kjell

Have you set up the vendorid? Kjell
