Charles, dmesg doesn't say anything when "usbhid-ups -a rtdups -k" is executed.
I'm not sure which USB lib it compiled against. I installed them via "zypper install libusb-*". I'll try to find the version that got installed, as that WOULD be one thing that might have changed since the last time I had this working. I'm not sure how to check for multiple usbhid-ups running (it's not a driver module, so not lsmod, and ps just returns what I am grepping for), but I do not think there are as I've encountered this problem even after a clean reinstall and starting from scratch. I might go try Porteus 3.1 because I got it working fully and easily on that as well "back in the day", and if it fails there too, then maybe my USB implementation on the UPS is off somehow.

The "Device or resource busy" message can either come from a kernel driver (usbhid, etc.) or from another userspace program. The simplest thing is to check for other copies of usbhid-ups (at the point when you run '<driver> -k', it is expected that most processes will have terminated). If it isn't that, you may need to verify whether you are compiling against libusb-0.1.x, or libusb+libusb-compat. In theory, it shouldn't make any difference, but in practice, there might be subtle differences in error messages that could help narrow things down. Also, what does 'dmesg' say around the time that you run the driver? -- Charles Lepple clepple@gmail _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
