Dear Arjen, Many thanks for your prompt reply.

Try running > > ./usbhid-ups -u root -DD -a CyberPower Actually, I have tried this also (I should have mentioned this in my previous posting). Moreover, I have set permissions to USB devices to make them accessible for the uucp user, so I hope the permissions should be ok. [r...@substance /usr/local/libexec/nut]# ./usbhid-ups -u root -DD -a CyberPower Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.34 (2.4.1) USB communication driver 0.31 debug level is '2' upsdrv_initups... No appropriate HID device found No matching HID UPS found Could it be that FreeBSD recognizes my CyberPower device a little bit different than any Linux machine (say, the device signature as recognized by USB driver is different) - so a small patch of the nut source code may improve the situation? Can I debug nut or libusb further to see what is going on inside? Thanks a lot, forsite _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
