$ dir /dev/bus/usb/001/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 100 2007-08-28 18:11 ./ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 80 2007-08-28 18:11 ../ crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 0 2007-08-28 18:11 001 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 1 2007-08-28 18:11 002 crw-rw-r-- 1 root nut 189, 2 2007-09-21 14:23 003 Now, an interesting twist to your comment about another usb package: if I remove the usbhid module, the error message from nut changes to "No error" but with the same stale behavior.
