Steve, use newhidups, not hidups. You should do either this:
./configure --with-drivers=newhidups make (to compile only the newhidups driver - saves a lot of time), or this: ./configure make make usb (to compile all drivers). Note that simply "make" does not compile any USB drivers by default, which is an outdated behavior and one that we should probably change. Arnaud, what is your feeling about the "make usb" target? Does it still serve a useful purpose? Also, are there any situations where the hidups driver is still preferred/needed? Perhaps we should change drivers.txt to encourage people more strongly to use newhidups. -- Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > I just installed NUT and my UPS is an APC Back-UPS ES 500.
