Hi,
I'm trying to set up my ups [Powermate 3105] so far :
1/ It's recognised as 'Vendor=0592 Prodid=0002'
2/ Kernel message : 'reddwarf kernel: usb 2-1: new low speed USB
device using uhci_hcd and address 2'
I installed 'CheckUPS' from Powermate.com.au
Read posts at marc.theaimsgroup, didn't appear to help (serial
connections as against usb)
Have problems in understanding which port or pipe to use.
similar problem in uderstanding how you start it running and the
config files for me are murder to work through.
I realy need someone to help me install/run Nut/CheckUPS
Thanks david
ALthough there's no documentation refrerring to it, you need to
configure nut in FC using /etc/sysconfig/ups. Things that you can set
there need to be set there. Other things are configured using the files
in /etc/ups.
Also, there's a bug against the kernel (can't get to Bugzilla to check
the number just now due to flakey net connection) regarding the hidups
driver and unhandled interrupts that may cause you problems (unless it's
fixed in the latest updates-testing kernel).
Matthew,
