These first two devices are not important (hiddev is a bit of a pain to work with, and is linux-specific, so we use libusb)
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root nut 52 Oct 16 15:10 /proc/bus/usb/002/002
libusb uses this in sarge, but later versions use /dev/bus/usb/<bus>/<dev>. If you use the udev rule, it should set the appropriate permissions automatically. Let me know if you have requests for new features or bug fixes. I am working on a solution for monitoring multiple SMARTPRO units, and eventually we will improve the error messages regarding the USB device nodes. -- - Charles Lepple _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
