Nut shut down a machine last night when there was no power outage. When I came in this morning, the UPS was turned off, but it turned on cleanly and passed its self-test. The battery was at 62% when I first checked it, and it's up to 63% now, about 20 minutes later. The UPS is a Tripp-Lite AVR550U. I'm running nut version 2.0.3. I expect to be told to update to a newer version and to quit using hidups. Is there anything else?

I don't want to sound like a broken record, because I assume you've found the upgrade-from-hidups mantra in the mailing list archives a few times now. I'm curious, though - is it just that your system distribution includes 2.0.3, or is there something broken in the newer versions that's preventing you from using them?> Here's the relevant section of the log: > > May 23 20:55:29 galprop hidups[3407]: Unhandled event: 0x8400d0 (0)this line: http://boxster.ghz.cc/projects/nut/browser/tags/v2.0.5/drivers/tripplite-hid.c#L54 indicates that 0x8400d0 means that the AC failed, as far as the UPS is concerned.
