In all other cases nut-classic will be needed: Serial UPSes, SNMP remote UPSes, combination of UPSes. The disadvantage of nut-classic is impossibility of reuse of HAL power management frontends. 2) It seems to be a temporary solution. We can get rid hal-classic, if: - All drivers will be moved to HAL. For undetectable hardware it will require config based static HAL provider, which does not exist yet (It was rejected in past by some developers as "against the spirit of hal". Now they have more positive opinion about it, but somebody must write it.) - The network UPS logic will be integrated with HAL. It may need a consesus with an extension of hal power management. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Fixing now. It introduces circular dependency between core and frontend package, but it is intended. One without the other cannot be used. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
