Connecting a USB UPS
Hello folks! I use a SL1000 UPS. The model is marketed by Advice, and looks like their continuation of the Sustainer UPS line. It comes with both a serial and USB port. The serial version of the SL line always worked OK under Linux with their grotty (but adequate) UPSMON program, which comes with the unit (or may be downloaded from the Powercom site. www dot pcmups dot com dot tw). My current workstation does not have any serial ports, so the supplied UPSMON will not work. As proof of hardware integrity for what follows, I ran up the supplied Windows UPS software on an XP client running under VMware. The new USB device was detected and everything worked as it should. Back to Linux: I'm running openSUSE 11.1 with KDE 3.5 fully updated. First, the relevant line from lsusb: Bus 004 Device 008: ID 0d9f:0002 Powercom Co., Ltd Next, an extract from the YAST hardware Information module: - hal device list - 0: udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_d9f_2_noserial_if0' info.subsystem = 'usb' usb.interface.number = 0 (0x0) info.linux.driver = 'usbhid' usb.product = 'USB HID Interface' usb.device_subclass = 0 (0x0) usb.interface.class = 3 (0x3) info.product = 'USB HID Interface' usb.linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/pci:00/:00:1d.0/usb4/4-1/4-1:1.0' usb.speed = 1.5 usb.interface.subclass = 0 (0x0) info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_d9f_2_noserial_if0' usb.device_revision_bcd = 0 (0x0) usb.device_protocol = 0 (0x0) usb.interface.protocol = 0 (0x0) usb.configuration_value = 1 (0x1) usb.version = 1.0 usb.max_power = 100 (0x64) usb.vendor_id = 3487 (0xd9f) linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/pci:00/:00:1d.0/usb4/4-1/4-1:1.0' usb.num_configurations = 1 (0x1) usb.is_self_powered = false info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_d9f_2_noserial' usb.num_ports = 0 (0x0) usb.product_id = 2 (0x2) usb.num_interfaces = 1 (0x1) usb.can_wake_up = false usb.linux.device_number = 7 (0x7) usb.vendor = 'Powercom Co., Ltd' linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) usb.device_class = 0 (0x0) usb.bus_number = 4 (0x4) linux.subsystem = 'usb' 1: udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_d9f_2_noserial' info.subsystem = 'usb_device' info.linux.driver = 'usb' usb_device.product = 'USB to Serial' linux.device_file = '/dev/bus/usb/004/007' - That's it usb_device.linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/pci:00/:00:1d.0/usb4/4-1' info.product = 'USB to Serial' usb_device.device_revision_bcd = 0 (0x0) usb_device.configuration_value = 1 (0x1) usb_device.max_power = 100 (0x64) info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_d9f_2_noserial' usb_device.num_configurations = 1 (0x1) usb_device.num_ports = 0 (0x0) usb_device.num_interfaces = 1 (0x1) usb_device.linux.device_number = 7 (0x7) usb_device.device_class = 0 (0x0) linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/pci:00/:00:1d.0/usb4/4-1' usb_device.device_subclass = 0 (0x0) info.vendor = 'Powercom Co., Ltd' usb_device.speed = 1.5 info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_1d6b_1__00_1d_0' usb_device.device_protocol = 0 (0x0) usb_device.version = 1.0 usb_device.vendor_id = 3487 (0xd9f) usb_device.is_self_powered = false usb_device.product_id = 2 (0x2) usb_device.can_wake_up = false linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) usb_device.vendor = 'Powercom Co., Ltd' usb_device.bus_number = 4 (0x4) linux.subsystem = 'usb' For some reason, the printout did not include this: Drivers Modules Active: Yes modprobe: Yes modules modprobe cypress_m8 Drivers Modules Active: Yes modprobe: Yes modules modprobe usbhid I installed nut. It has a configuration file, /etc/ups/ups.conf, which requires this: [upsname] driver = drivername port = portname any other directives here The critical items are drivername and portname. The nut documentation suggests the use of /dev/hiddev0 for portname, however I don't have any /dev/hiddev0, 1, 2 ... entries. (nor do they exist in some sub-direcory). As an inspired (?) guess, I tried driver = powercom and port = /dev/ttyS0. The upsd daemon started , but was unable to communicate with the device: Here are the last few entries from syslog: Aug 18 13:40:11 danny upsmon[15804]: Poll UPS [my...@localhost] failed - Data stale Aug 18 13:40:12 danny powercom[15796]: data receiving error (-1 instead of 11 bytes) Aug 18 13:40:16 danny upsmon[15804]: Poll UPS [my...@localhost] failed - Data stale Aug 18 13:40:17 danny powercom[15796]: data receiving error (-1 instead of 11 bytes) It's easy to see what's happening: The poller sends a Ctl A (I think) to the UPS and should get back 11 bytes of status data. And so to the $64,000 question: What should I be using for these two parameters? An RTFM would be fine, but go find the FM to R! Daniel begin:vcard fn:Daniel Feiglin

Aviram Yeah yeah. Well - then you already know then that the phone number is for Premier customers to use when the service is unusable. Which has only happened a couple times the past year. The other issues use email which is ok. Personally I only had to use it once when they cunningly removed some features without telling anyone. From a support perspective - imho slicehost and rackspace are hands down winners. fwiw - I had no idea the big G would get such an emotional response in the list. At any rate - I think I've finished here. d http://www.dannylieberman.info On Wed, Aug 19, 2009 at 9:26 AM, Aviram Jenik avi...@jenik.com wrote: On Tuesday 18 August 2009 13:51:02 Danny Lieberman wrote: 3.

Re: Connecting a USB UPS
Nope. There is no such thing as a ttyUSB0 device anywhere. However, in the mean time I found someone else with the same problem, who did this: Begin quote: USB Serial Converter support This serial driver supports a wide range of USB to serial adapters. It also allows communication with the Handspring Visor. You need to turn on USB Serial Converter support, and then select whichever of the various particular drivers you need. The Generic Serial Driver can be used with a wide range of converters, by specifying the vendor and product ID codes when you load the USB serial converter module: insmod usb-serial.o vendor=0x product-0x, where you need to change the and to match your device. The serial port driver uses a major number of 188. Up to sixteen serial ports are supported. To create the appropriate device entries, use the following commands: mknod /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 c 188 0 ... mknod /dev/usb/ttyUSB15 c 188 15 You should now be able to plug in a serial device into the adapter, and use the /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 just as if it were a normal serial port. End quote. Well, it didn't work, but it is in the right direction. I now see two new devices in /dev, hiddev0 and hidraw0. That was the immediate effect of the insmod.

2009/8/19 David Suna da...@davidsconsultants.com: My son got an inexpensive digital camera and I am trying to plug it in to an Ubuntu system to be able to copy off the pictures. When I plug in the camera to the USB a light on the camera flashes but the device is not detected as a storage device. When I run lsusb it sees the device Bus 003 Device 006: ID 0979:0227 Jeilin Technology Corp., Ltd It's not a direct solution to your problem, and maybe things changed since last time I checked, but personally I prefer to use a card reader for such tasks: 1. It saves camera battery. 2. It's much faster than the camera's USB interface (?) 3. I suspect that taking out the card and putting it back in is less unhealthy for the camera than connecting the mini/micro-usb cable. It's been a few years now that many printers come with a built-in card reader, so maybe you have one already. As for getting your camera recognised, maybe the following link could help or point to the right direction: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB (pointing to possibly more relevant link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbDriveDoSomethingHowto) Cheers, --Amos ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il

Re: Suggestion for a webmail application with good Hebrew Support
Roundcubemail is using TinyMCE editor which supports Hebrew oob and has a GREAT translation ( me :) ) It's indeed new but with avid contributors. The next version will have an improved support for plugins, which are accumulating quickly. Some people from the community are offering it to their customers' base so I assume it's not that bad :) I mamnaged to import all my contacts from a spreadsheet and many from the community are using ldap. It's very easy to install and use, so try it. I'm using also Squirrlemail which is extremely rubust and with many plugins but Hebrew support is weak ( you can use an editor through an unfriendly plugin ) and it's UI is stale at best. Bottom line: If you need a quick and dirty tool that just works - squirrlemail. If you are looking for a modern tool with potential and good Hebrew support - Roundcubemail. If you are looking for Gmail replacement - go elsewhere. PS I'm not aware of any vulnerability. -- Moish ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
Re: [?? Probable Spam] Re: Attaching a camera via USB
Yes. However, they had a problem getting it to work as a web cam. It automatically came up as a mass storage device. For me it is not even coming up as a mass storage device.
