If I plug in the usb cable for my APC Back-UPS system, I do indeed see the battery icon in a gnome session, so it is clear that something is talking to it. Is that something smart enough to cleanly shutdown the system on a power failure? Or do I need extra software like NUT or apcupsd? (I'd kinda rather not answer this question via the obvious experiment :-).
apcupsd can help. But I don't know if any FC build is "up to date" enough to work right with USB. {^_^}
