You had better checked that out *before* buying these units. :-) >> Over USB, maybe they are supported by the "megatec_usb" driver that's >> in the trunk, or the driver can be made to work with them. > The Ubuntu package of nut-2.0.4 that I've installed has a megatec > driver (written by you, I notice) but no megatec_usb.

And then still you may be out of luck if the serial-to-USB converter Belkin put into this unit is not (yet) supported by the megatec_usb driver. Unfortunately, in many cases these use a manufacturer specific protocol to encapsulate the serial communication in USB. If yours happens to use a different way as the two existing subdrivers for megatec_usb, this requires writing an additional subdriver before you can use it.
