Nut upsuser - May 2006 - updateinfo and stale data

Hi,

	FreeBSD 5.4, NUT from ports (2.0.3), serial on /dev/cuaa1, Ellipse

	I set the ups.conf up as :

[ellipse]
        driver=mge-utalk
        port=/dev/cuaa1
        desc="Ellipse"


	When I go to start it I get :

Could not get multiplier table: using raw readings.
