good, thanks for the pointers. > Yes, this is right - there is a patch. The only problem is that the driver > needs to be rewritten to use libusb.

The driver is already using libusb, but not NUT's nut_usb.h or libusb.h. this doesn't much matter since my 2nd step on USB improvements (after the IDs extraction I'm about to finish) is to have some generic shared function (like ser_*()) Can you (Arjen or Alex) check for integrating this patch? I'll take care of updating it for USB_DEVICE declaration and the usb_info struct. thanks, Arnaud -- Linux / Unix Expert R&D - MGE Office Protection Systems - http://www.mgeops.com Network UPS Tools (NUT) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org/ Debian Developer - http://people.debian.org/~aquette/ Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.free.fr/ _______________________________________________ Nut-upsdev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsdev
