------------------------------------------------------------------------------- botticelli:/usr/local/ups/bin# ./bcmxcp_usb -DDD -u root -a botticelli-ups Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.10 (2.0.3) debug level is '3' Can't open POWERWARE USB device, retrying ... Can't open POWERWARE USB device, retrying ... [...] Can't open POWERWARE USB device, retrying ... Can't open POWERWARE USB device, retrying ... Can't open POWERWARE USB device Unable to find POWERWARE UPS device on USB bus Things to try: - Connect UPS device to USB bus - Run this driver as another user (upsdrvctl -u or 'user=...' in ups.conf). See upsdrvctl(8) and ups.conf(5). Fatal error: unusable configuration botticelli:/usr/local/ups/bin# ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, is it really true that I do *not* need a working hiddev subsystem to get this Powerware 5115 to work over USB? If I no longer need hiddev, why does 2.0.3's configure still allow to specify the path to hiddev.h? If bcmxcp_usb just needs libusb: is there any way to make sure that my libusb does indeed work as expected? Now I'm in the situation that I don't know whether my USB subsystem is broken, whether there is a bug in nut 2.0.3 or the Powerware 5115 is not supported via USB. Any hints?
