And, I have removed the user upsd from groups uucp and daemon. Ie, everything is at default config, except passwords and drivers... and the timeout: that was the problem.
Of course, the root problem is why is it so slow. Can you imagine a one minute delay on every boot?
That is *wierd* :^). It must be the ups unit is slow to communicate. One suggestion, the present config walls notification when you go "onbatt", but not when returning. I have changed: NOTIFYFLAG ONLINE SYSLOG to NOTIFYFLAG ONLINE SYSLOG+WALL+EXEC as I cannot find another place to see the status other than grepping /var/log/messages: grep myups /var/log/messages Nov 20 17:08:01 wahoo upsmon[11184]: UPS myups@localhost on battery Nov 20 17:08:31 wahoo upsmon[11184]: UPS myups@localhost on line power It's rather alarming to get notice that you are on battery backup and no notice that normalcy has returned :^) It may be sufficient to use "EXEC" and drop wall as wall writes to every open terminal and EXEC merely opens (In my case) KEdit with a copy of the notice in the active desktop.
