[Nut-upsdev] Sweex 1000VA UPS (Lakeview Research)

[Tom Cassimon]

Hi,

One patch I found at :

http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/nut-upsuser/2007-November/003449.ht
ml

I've applied this one to the nut-2.2.2 release. But it didn't work.

Makefile didn't merge, 3 out of 3 hunk rejected.

I also found an earlier version of the patch, but that didn't work either.



Lsusb gives the following result:

Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0925:1234 Lakeview Research

Safenet, genericups upstype=7 & megatec drivers in nut-2.2.2 don't work
either.

Regards,

Tom Cassimon

Can you please point us to the patches you are looking at?

Lakeview Research probably refers to Jan Axelson's consultancy. She
has written at least one book on USB device and driver development,
and the UPS in question may have used the USB Vendor ID for Lakeview
Research.
