I have an MGE UPS on order. I am hoping that it just conforms to the power class (MGE
worked on the class spec :)
I think that the event interface can represent the range of data that you need. The
problem is normally where you need to configure something. However it doesn't seem
to be required by the power class spec, so I think that reporting only should
be OK.
I was planning (as a first order approximation) to hack the evtest code that
Vojtech wrote into a driver for NUT (http://www.exploits.org/nut/). Looks
like it shouldn't be _that_ difficult. And should be able to be done in user
space, which is always good for avoiding reboots :)
