Gene, What do you have in /etc/nut/ups.conf? (There shouldn't be any passwords in that one if you're using a USB-connected UPS, but check to be sure. Also, I don't need any of the lines starting with "#".) > Found it in /lib/nut, doesn't modprobe, not in /lib/modules/kernelversion > tree. > > I need to fix this, how do I proceed?

NUT "drivers" are user-space programs, not kernel modules. The Debian packages of NUT should be able to find the drivers in /lib/nut without any problems. (For instance, when you have "driver = usbhid-ups" listed in /etc/nut/ups.conf, "upsdrvctl start" will combine the default driver path "/lib/nut" with "usbhid-ups" to start /lib/nut/usbhid-ups.) We only recommend mixing repo packages and source builds in certain cases (for debugging, and supporting new hardware), and there's a procedure on the GitHub wiki to make the source build match the .deb packages. Let's try to make the Debian stretch packages work first. -- - Charles Lepple https://ghz.cc/charles/ _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
