I have a 64 bit Gentoo, with a Liebert UPS. The last NUT working version was sys-power/nut-2.4.1-r1 (I also tried sys-power/nut-2.4.3-r2 but downgraded, don't remember the reason).
Anyway with the upgrade to sys-power/nut-2.6.0 I started to see this error message when I try to start upsdrv: [root@aemaeth:/etc/nut]$ /etc/init.d/upsdrv start * Starting UPS drivers ... Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.6.0 Network UPS Tools - Liebert MultiLink UPS driver 1.02 (2.6.0) Warning: This is an experimental driver. Some features may not function correctly. tcgetattr(/dev/liebert-ups): Inappropriate ioctl for device Driver failed to start (exit status=1) * Failed to start UPS drivers! [ !! ] * ERROR: upsdrv failed to start Upgrade instruction don't say anything relevant. The link /dev/liebert-ups -> usb/hiddev0 is managed by udev, and the permissons should be ok, this problem is present also if I set user=root in /etc/nut/ups.conf (see further below my tests) So I did a little testing: [root@aemaeth:/lib/nut]$ ll /dev/usb/hiddev0 crw-rw---- 1 nut nut 180, 96 26 mar 08.44 /dev/usb/hiddev0 [root@aemaeth:/lib/nut]$ cat /etc/nut/ups.conf | egrep -v '\#|^$' user = nut [liebert] port = /dev/liebert-ups driver = usbhid-ups [root@aemaeth:/lib/nut]$ ./usbhid-ups -a liebert -DDDDD Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.35 (2.6.0) USB communication driver 0.31 0.000000 debug level is '5' 0.000507 upsdrv_initups... 0.000893 Checking device (05AB/0060) (001/006) 0.000929 - VendorID: 05ab 0.000936 - ProductID: 0060 0.000942 - Manufacturer: unknown 0.000947 - Product: unknown 0.000953 - Serial Number: unknown 0.000958 - Bus: 001 0.000963 Trying to match device 0.000982 Device does not match - skipping 0.000991 Checking device (0BC2/2300) (001/002) 0.001005 - VendorID: 0bc2 0.001011 - ProductID: 2300 0.001017 - Manufacturer: unknown 0.001022 - Product: unknown 0.001028 - Serial Number: unknown 0.001033 - Bus: 001 0.001038 Trying to match device 0.001044 Device does not match - skipping 0.001051 Checking device (1D6B/0002) (001/001) 0.001065 - VendorID: 1d6b 0.001071 - ProductID: 0002 0.001076 - Manufacturer: unknown 0.001082 - Product: unknown 0.001087 - Serial Number: unknown 0.001093 - Bus: 001 0.001098 Trying to match device 0.001104 Device does not match - skipping 0.001111 Checking device (10AF/0004) (002/007) 0.001126 - VendorID: 10af 0.001132 - ProductID: 0004 0.001137 - Manufacturer: unknown 0.001143 - Product: unknown 0.001148 - Serial Number: unknown 0.001154 - Bus: 002 0.001159 Trying to match device 0.001168 This Liebert device (10af:0004) is not (or perhaps not yet) supported by usbhid-ups.
