Hi, I working to port apcupsd to Endian 2.2rc3 (apcupsd is a UPS monitor that can trigger a controlled shutdown of Endian if there is an extended power failure).
I had ported this successfully to earlier Endian versions (see http://alumnus.caltech.edu/~igormt/endian/extras.html). However, in 2.2rc3 I'm finding that the HIDDEV interface to USB seems to be missing (or incomplete). When I check /proc/bus/usb/devices, the UPSes that I plug in always come up a Driver=none (instead of Driver=usbhid as previous Endians). Also, looking in /sys/bus/usb/drivers/, hiddev is missing (it is present in Endian 2.1.2). Unfortunately, apcupsd relies on the hiddev interface. And I freely admit that I'm not very knowledgeable about USB under Linux. Does anyone have any clues how to fix this, either by getting hiddev working in 2.2rc3, or some other way to get apcupsd to talk to the UPS. Perhaps an Endian person can chime in regarding what changed in 2.2rc3 and why.
