Is it a permissions issue? The NUT udev configuration file changes the ownership and permissions to allow the NUT system user to write to the UPS without root permissions, but it might also mean that you would need to run lsusb as that user (or root). Reading USB string descriptors requires sending a control message to the USB device. Reading the device descriptor usually means getting a cached copy from the kernel. _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
