I'm running XFCE, and XFCE's Power Manager sees the UPS just fine. lsusb gives:
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 09ae:3016 Tripp Lite
nut-scanner -U has no issues either:
# nut-scanner -U
Scanning USB bus.
[nutdev1]
driver = "usbhid-ups"
port = "auto"
vendorid = "09AE"
productid = "3016"
product = "TRIPP LITE UPS"
serial = "2643FVLSM871900817"
vendor = "Tripp Lite"
bus = "006"
I took this and placed it in ups.conf, but upsdrvctl fails to start.
Following the bread crumbs, I arrived at:
# /usr/sbin/usbhid-ups -D -D -D -a nutdev1
...
0.054668 Checking device (09AE/3016) (006/002)
0.054764 Failed to open device, skipping. (Permission denied)
Running this with strace I see this:
write(2, "Checking device (09AE/3016) (006/002)\n", 38) = 38
open("/dev/bus/usb/006/002", O_RDWR) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
write(2, " 0.054764\t", 12) = 12
write(2, "Failed to open device, skipping. (Permission denied)\n", 53) = 53
write(2, " 0.054830\t", 12) = 12
Can't open the USB device. I have SELinux set to permissive, so this isn't
the issue.
