...USB ups before nut can get it. There are a number of klugey workarounds, like turn off port power until ready to start nut (so that hal doesn't see the UPS). Or killall hal-addon-hid-ups before starting nut. Here is one of recipes I googled: https://github.com/sdgathman/trippfix/blob/master/halpolicy.fdi It doesn't work - hal still loads the addon - preventing nut upsdrvctl from succeeding. I'm thinking the killall is the least dirty workaround, but what is the right way to tell hal not to mess with the UPS (or any UPS for that matter).

...-hid-ups before starting nut. Minor nit, but for anyone else using an exact match search interface (like packages.ubuntu.com), note that there is a "d" after "hal": hald-addon-hid-ups > Here is one of recipes I googled: > https://github.com/sdgathman/trippfix/blob/master/halpolicy.fdi What if you convert the USB ID numbers to decimal? <match key="@info.parent:usb.vendor_id" int="2748"> <match key="@info.parent:usb.product_id" int="12310"> Ref: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1253856 > It d...
