The serial-to-USB converter is different from the ones we already support in the 'megatec_usb' driver, which can be seen from the different VID:PID combination. This is a whole different beast, the 'megatec_usb' driver won't work with it as it is.

We do warn for this in 'docs/nut-hal.txt': Packaging information --------------------- The HAL support in NUT must currently be packaged separatly (ie in a specific nut-hal package) and must conflict with the classic nut packages. This is in order to: - allow shipping of the HAL support only in the base system, without including all the NUT drivers and software, - prevent the NUT HAL addons to get an exclusive and automatic access on a device, when a user only want to use the USB support with a classic NUT installation. So complain to the person that packaged NUT for you... :-) Best regards, Arjen _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
