Is there a good reason why smartups was removed from the SuSE distribution? I've been using this for quite some time and was surprised to see that it was not on the SuSE 8.0 CDs. I suppose I could go get the package elsewhere, but thought I'd ask about it here in case anyone had some words of wisdom. -- Robert C. Paulsen, Jr. robert@paulsenonline.net

Hi robert, can not answer your question but will suggest you try out apcupsd. its on the cd/dvd an works nice with apc's smart ups's. have used it for serveral versions now an this one seems to just install it an you can enable it to run in the runlevel editor, works very nice an will shut down your system for you an before it shuts down sends an email to root.
