similar to: newhidups renaming and related (was: newhidups: merged regex changes)

I have gone ahead and merged the regex_branch with the main Development branch. Reason: recent renaming of files and moving around of code leads to conflicts between the branches that will be increasingly difficult to resolve. It is easier to merge now while the two branches are still relatively similar and most edits non-overlapping. The merge is between tags before_PSE_6 and after_PSE_6 on

Hi Shane, please try the instructions at http://www.mathstat.dal.ca/~selinger/ups/backups.html (with appropriate modifications for FreeBSD). If you can't get it to work, please get help from the nut-upsuser mailing list (cc'd above), as I am no longer actively involved in NUT development.

Hi there, I'm one of the maintainers of the SME Server distro (www.contribs.org) and we've been chasing this one for some time: http://www.contribs.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=352 http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/nut-upsdev/2006-January/000543.html Many thanks to Peter Selinger and everyone else who helped with the debugging and patches.

I have checked in a cleaned-up version of patch #302111 (Belkin support) into CVS. See cvs diff -uN -r before_PSE_2 -r after_PSE_2 to check the difference. Here is the CHANGES entry: Tue Sep 13 20:50:14 UTC 2005 / Peter Selinger <selinger@users.sourceforge.net> - newhidups: added Belkin support. Also added some new variables and instant commands (some of these were already used by

Thought I would write some notes about how I got an APC BackUPS XS 1500 working with newhidups under Gentoo 2006.0. The specific issue here is the permissions on the device files used that libusb uses to access the USB hardware. I followed Peter Selinger's instructions at http://www.mscs.dal.ca/~selinger/ups/backups.html on getting newhidups going with an APC device. The sticking point for

Mr. Selinger, I'm CCing you directly since it appears (insofar as I can tell) that you are one of the delelopers for the newhidups driver. This is the third time I've submitted this (hence the CC this time). Hopefully mailman takes it. I've tweaked my SPF records, and I'm hoping that was the problem. My sincere apologies if this has gone through and I just haven't seen it

Hello everyone! If this message was posted twice, my apologies. I'm having issues with my webmail today... I am using the testing version of NUT from SVN at changeset 582. I have successfully created a stub for newhidups driver for my Dynex DX-800U UPS, but I am completely lost on the customization of it. I've followed the hid-subdrivers.txt instructions and I understand I need to

There is a memory leak in newhidups. After 23 days uptime it used 138M memory. Apart from the memory leak, the system works ok. Is there anything I can do to help fix this problem? Tor.

Has anyone gotten the newhidups driver to work w/ the Powerware 9120 series? Here's what I get for debug info (It's the Phoenixtec device): $ sudo lsusb Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0846:1040 NetGear, Inc.

Paolo, Try sudo /lib/nut/newhidups -DDD -u root -a SmartUps1500 newhidups would only run on my computer if I ran it using sudo and as root user. I know this indicates a problem with the USB permissions, but I could not, for the life of me, get the permissions to change when I plugged the UPS in. I know this isn't a true fix, but it worked for me. -- ~Brian Foster

Hello, I am having trouble getting upsd to start. I am using the Debian NUT packages version 2.0.3 (current in Debian/sid). I am using the newhidups driver with an APC Back-UPS BR 800. The init.d script wasn't functioning, so I backtracked to running upsd manually and I get: foxstar:/etc/nut# upsd -u root Network UPS Tools upsd 2.0.3 Can't connect to UPS [foxstarups] (newhidups-auto):

Dear List, I have an MGE Ellipse 1500. I run openSUSE 10.2, kernel 2.6.18, libusb 0.1.12, nut 2.0.5. ps shows that the following processes are running: /usr/lib/ups/driver/newhidups -a mgeups /usr/sbin/upsd -u root /usr/sbin/upsmon /usr/sbin/upsmon NUT operates correctly, shutting down the server after 4 minutes without power.

Here is a summary of the changes I made to newhidups today (between the tags after_PSE_6 and after_PSE_9, roughly). * all the vendor-specific code that was in various "switch" statements has now been moved to the individual subdriver (apc-hid, mge-hid, belkin-hid) files. This also includes the vendor-specific Usage tables. In future, it should be quite easy to add new

Whenever I try to use the newhidups driver with my new UPS I get the following message: #/lib/nut/newhidups -DDD -a SmartUps1500 Network UPS Tools: New USB/HID UPS driver 0.28 (2.0.4) debug level is '3' [...skip unrelevant device...] Checking device (051D/0002) (001/005) - VendorID: 051d - ProductID: 0002 - Manufacturer: American Power Conversion - Product: Smart-UPS 1500 FW:601.3.I USB

I'm using an APC Back-UPS XS with nut 2.0.3. I've recompiled/reinstalled the source, and switched over to the newhidups driver (instead of the old hidups driver). I modified by ups.conf to use newhidups. The hotplug files were not automatically installed, I had to copy those from the scripts directory to my hotplug/usb directory. The newhidups driver loads find and then works for a
