similar to: Fw: NUT hidups dont working on new linux kernels

I just installed NUT and my UPS is an APC Back-UPS ES 500. I looked in the list of drivers and found APC Back-UPS ES 350 listed in "drivers.txt" -- that list said I should use either the newhidups or hidups driver. I looked in the installation and I found headers and c files to create these drivers (I think), but in /usr/local/ups/bin there is no driver named, "newhidups or

Hello, I try to install my APC Back-UPS RS 800 on my debian system (Etch): Linux aigner 2.6.18-3-686 #1 SMP Mon Dec 4 16:41:14 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux When i try to start the driver an i use hidups i get this failure massage: aigner:/lib/nut# upsdrvctl start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.4 Network UPS Tools: HID UPS driver 0.13 (2.0.4) Warning: This is an experimental driver.

Hi, is there a way to use my Belkin F6H650 on the USB port? I already installed usbhid-support, but neither the hidups worked (reports "/dev/usb/hiddev0 is not a UPS") nor genericups with upstype=7 and the hiddev set as device ("ioctl TIOCMSET: Invalid argument") worked. I have installed the debian sarge package of nut 2.0.1 (2.0.1-4) Regards, Philipp

is there a way to override the productid (like -x productid=1234) when using newhidups? just thought i'd try it with the F6C1500-TW-RK over usb. i was able to get hidups to work using the below settings, but it provides limited information. my ups.conf entry: [belkin] driver = hidups port = /dev/usb/hiddev0 and the output of upsc: gateway:/etc/nut# upsc

Hi! I've got a Mandrake 2006.0 machine and a APC Back-UPS Pro 500/1000/1500 (from lsusb). The Mandrake package version of nut is 2.0.1 and hidups actually detects the UPS, however I get loads of these: Sep 12 18:26:11 vader hidups[7658]: Ignoring x86 page event 0xff860080 (0) Sep 12 18:26:11 vader hidups[7658]: Unhandled event: 0x840058 (6) Sep 12 18:26:11 vader hidups[7658]: Unhandled

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 Patrick, in February, you tried to post the below message to the nut-upsuser list, but the post was rejected because you were not subscribed to the list. Unfortunately, you did not subscribe and re-post it. Anyway, I have been working on Tripp-Lite support for newhidups recently, and I wonder if you have any feedback. Did you ever get this device to work? >From the information you sent,

Hello, I have encountered problems trying to set up nut to work with APC BackUps Pro CS connected over USB to an AMD64 machine running Debian. While apcupsd works fine with that device, whenever I start upsd I get the following messages in syslog: hidups[23159]: Startup successful upsd[23160]: Connected to UPS [apc1]: hidups-hiddev0 upsd[23161]: Startup successful hidups[23159]: Unhandled event:

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

I'm working on a gentoo server with Nut 2.0.5-r1 and libusb-0.1.12. I originally tried the hidups driver which seemed to work, but produced a large amount of unhandled events. Then I tried the newhidups which told me my ups wasn't supported. When I try using tripplite_usb -u root -DDDD /proc/bus/usb/002/002 I get that there isn't a match. But when I try using tripplite_usb -DDDD

Good afternoon, I am trying to communicate with a new Tripp-Lite UPS via usb and having little luck. After more than a week on this I've decided to ask for help. I am very inexperienced at posting information to message boards, so hopefully I'm doing this right. I assume this is the correct place to post this message. I will start with the equipment I have. I am using Debian Sarge

Hello, We have two APC Back-UPS RS 1500 USB stuff, and i've got a bit of a problem with it and NUT. The usbdevs output: addr 2: Back-UPS RS 1500 FW:8.g8 .I USB FW:g8, American Power Conversion addr 3: Back-UPS RS 1500 FW:8.g8 .I USB FW:g8, American Power Conversion (UPS1 and UPS2) I've configured our NUT system to monitor the UPSes, and it went very fine till the time had arrived for a

* I committed into CVS the gendb patch that I sent to the mailing list on September 12. Arnaud, I hope you approve of this patch; it is more reliable than the previous method in tracking the correct dependencies. * This, together with some other minor recent changes on the Development branch, is between the "before_PSE_3" and "after_PSE_3" tags. Arnaud: if you

I Seem to have made some progress in getting nut-2.0.5 installed, but hidups still has a version number of 0.13. First is hidups 0.13 the correct version? if not how do I find the correct version. Second if my Geek Squad GS1285U UPS is not supported how do I proceed. I have been a programmer for 35 years(mostly high level computer aided design), written code in 20 some languages, am retired

Hello, I hope someone can help me. I'm trying to get this all working without some stupid hack. So far no dice. Not sure if there is a new feature in CVS or something that might help. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Got a belkin F6C550-AVR. redhat FC3ish system libusb-0.1.8-3 nut-2.0.3-0.fc4.2 udev-039-10.FC3.8 Now first off while udev is nifty, but the whole usb udev subsystems were

Hi again, I've succeeded in compiling the svn trunk with the automake tools and wish to say thank you to Charles Lepple for his help. After fixing some parameters in the hotplug script I can now get access to the UPS on /dev/usb/hiddev0 (I added productid and vendorid of my ups to the usermap). I've decided to try the newhidups driver with -x generic parameter and got this response :

Hi, I'm new to nut, just installed it. I configured it using the hidups driver to work with my APC BackUPS: # upsc apc350@localhost battery.charge: 100 battery.runtime: 885 battery.voltage: 13.5 driver.name: hidups driver.parameter.port: /dev/usb/hiddev0 driver.version: 2.0.0 ups.delay.shutdown: -1 ups.delay.start: 0 ups.load: 660 ups.mfr: American Power Conversion ups.model: Back-UPS CS 350

I'd like to submit a patch to the 'hidups' driver. I'm a bit new to open-source development model, so I hope I'm not committing a faux paus by just posting it here. I did verify that the problem still exists (by source code inspection) in the latest dev snapshot, which is nut-2.0.3-pre2. I'm using nut-2.0.2 myself. The problem is when I'm connecting to my APC
