;-) Does anyone here use this UPS ( CyberPower Systems CP1350AVRLCD
UPS) under SuSE?
I use APC, because the explicitly support Linux, even
providing the Linux version of their powerchute program
on their website.
Copy of my email to CyberPower and their response -
We have no drivers or software for Linux but the USB port is a power
class hid port so if the version of Linux supports Power Class HID USB
devices then the ups will be recognized as batteries within the OS power
manager and can be controlled.

What a putz.
Just enough information to...make you wish you had the
information you actually need. Worthless :-(
What is NECESSARY is what the UPS send out on the serial
line to indicate that line power has been lost.

I am interested in the CyberPower Systems CP1350AVRLCD UPS and wonder
what you can tell me about using it under Linux systems. Is there
drivers available for it, and if so can you supply me with information
on them? In particular I am running computers with SuSE Linux.
Thanks... Marc Chamberlin
