What happened to /dev/hiddev0?
The damn thing was their earlier, but is gone now. Patrick, somebody, could you post an ls -al /dev/hiddev0 so I know what permissions I need to recreate it with mknod. Thanks!
Nevermind, I found it:
mknod /dev/hiddev0 c 180 96
that's good, cause it don't happen here. No setch monster :^(
Should I have it?
Patrick, If you don't have it, you might want to create it and try again. Without it, it would make sense that you can't talk to it.... Recall usr/share/doc/packages/nut/README.SUSE One other thing that is bugging me is that upsd won't start under user upsd. It is a good user: upsd:x:113:2:UPS daemon:/sbin:/bin/false It owns the ups directory: drwx------ 2 upsd root 4096 2008-06-26 22:40 ups If you try and start it as upsd, it fails claiming no HID UPS: [22:46 nirvana/var/lib] # /usr/lib/ups/driver/upsdrvctl -D -u upsd start nirvana_ups Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.2.0- Starting UPS: nirvana_ups Network UPS Tools: 0.28 USB communication driver 0.28 - core 0.30 (2.2.0-) No matching HID UPS found Driver failed to start (exit status=1) If you give it the /var/lib/ups dir to chroot into, it also fails: [22:43 nirvana/var/lib] # /usr/lib/ups/driver/upsdrvctl -D -u upsd -r /var/lib/ups start nirvana_ups Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.2.0- Starting UPS: nirvana_ups Network UPS Tools: 0.28 USB communication driver 0.28 - core 0.30 (2.2.0-) Can't chdir to /var/lib/ups: No such file or directory Driver failed to start (exit status=1) ??? it owns the dir, why cant it chdir into it?
