Package: apcupsd
Version: 3.14.8-2
Severity: important

Since Jan. 19th 2011 apcupsd hangs, stops, after running from 1-6 hours. The
symptoms are always the same:

   1. The apps that monitor TIMELEFT and BCHARGE stop.
   2. Apcaccess does not respond
   3. 3 more apcupsd tasks appear in htop (from the 2 that are normally
   there)
   4. Half an hour later every 10 secs. this appears in syslog: Debian
   kernel: [ 4987.404050] generic-usb 0003:051D:0002.0001: control queue full.
   5. This refers to Bus 003 Device 002: ID 051d:0002 American Power
   Conversion Uninterruptible Power Supply
   6. Apcupsd cannot be cancelled or restarted
   7. Upon reboot / cannot be unmounted because it is busy.

Reboot finds that / was not unmounted correctly, e2fsck's it and reboots
again.

I have been running apcupsd on Sid for about 6 years with this unit, I am on
my 3rd battery. Sid is uptodate and udev is at version 164-4.

Hugo Vanwoerkom
