This is a duplicate bug report. It was first reported by Gordon Rowell on Feb 06 on the Nut-upsdev list, and has subsequently been fixed in CVS. See
http://boxster.ghz.cc/projects/nut/changeset/352 Arnaud, should we backport these bugfixes to 2.0.3? I have a feeling we will see this bug reported several times more. -- Peter John Gruenenfelder wrote: > > Okay, now that I've got NUT up and running with the newhidups driver, I can > give it a quick shakedown. > > Most of the values look good, but are few are off.
