Note that HAL is being superseded by DeviceKit and DeviceKit-power. This approach will probably be abandonned... > -----Message d'origine----- > De : Charles Lepple [mailto:[email protected]] > Envoyé : vendredi 31 juillet 2009 15:08 > À : Antoine Gatineau > Cc : 'nut-upsuser' > Objet : Re: [Nut-upsuser] Usbhip-ups going wild > > On Jul 31, 2009, at 9:03 AM, Antoine Gatineau wrote: > > > Indeed, nut depends on some packages not the distribution itself. > > You are surely right. > > > > Anyway, here are the links : > > RHEL 4 : ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/EPEL/4ES/SRPMS/ > > nut-2.2.0-4.el4.src.rpm > > RHEL 5 : nut-2.4.1 found only on this one > > http://wolfy.fedorapeople.org/nut/SRPM/ > use that one. install it and edit the spec. modifying --with-all by --with-usb should be sufficient. cheers, Arnaud -- Linux / Unix Expert R&D - Eaton - http://www.eaton.com/mgeops Network UPS Tools (NUT) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org/ Debian Developer - http://www.debian.org Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.free.fr/
