Hello all,

 Sorry for delay. I've been away for a while. Back to testing. I've tried
regular version 2.6.5-1 and patched. Main thing is that both versions work
until I reboot the OS, after that starting the nut fails with messages
below. To make it run again I've to re-plug the usb cable. Hard-resetting
the ups doesn't help either. Considering the fact to remotely monitor the
devices it is quite inconvenient. Suppose there is I power fault and ups is
drained out of power then the system won't come back online after power is
restored. I've tried searching for a working way to model the "usb cable
re-plug" on OS level with no luck.  Any help would be appreciated.
