Hi, I have a small home-use UPS for my home server from powerwalker (http://powerwalker.com/de/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=63&Itemid=106 sorry I only found a german version).
It has a USB and a serial connector. lsusb lists it as "06da:0003 Phoenixtec Power Co., Ltd", in /proc/bus/usb/devices it sais "Manufacturer=OMRON" and "Product=USB UPS". The devices isn't listed at the nut homepage, so I started to try the usb drivers. With bcmxcp_usb I get some response: # /etc/init.d/upsdrv start * Starting UPS drivers ... Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.3 Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.10 (2.0.3) Can't open POWERWARE USB device, retrying ... Can't open POWERWARE USB device, retrying ... So it seems to be recognized as Powerware device. Permissions shouldn't be the problem, as I updated them and also # upsdrvctl -u root start gives me the same result. I also tried the bestups serial driver, but without luck (do I need some special kernel options for the serial device? Never used that one before). Using nut-2.0.4-r1, the latest in Gentoo portage. I you know any help, I'd appreciate that. However this is only a home-size not-at-all critical thing, so I could live with a 'we've got more serious business to do.' ;) Regards, Michael
