It sounds similar to a rack-mount unit that I tested once. > Unable to get HID descriptor (error sending control message: Operation not > permitted) We need to make this a little more obvious in the install instructions, but you need to either run the driver as root (only advisable for short-term testing) or change ownership of the appropriate /proc/bus/usb/XYZ/ABC node (best done in hotplug scripts, because some devices occasionally disconnect due to noise on the USB lines). The hotplug stuff depends on your particular distribution. -- - Charles Lepple _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
