I'd appreciate any clue from anyone who > has this thing working under hal. I have a ups with a usb connection and am using nut to monitor it. I haven't tested that it shuts down properly since rawhide switched to upstart, but it did work previously. I don't use gnome-power-manager though. I hand edited the config files and use the 'ups' service to watch it. usbhid-ups is the driver for most usb ups's in rawhide. Before that it was newhidups.
