Hi,

I'm trying to get a Powerware 3105 UPS working on SuSE 10.0. I have compiled 
nut from the current Subversion repository. This UPS uses the bcmxcp_usb 
driver.

I cannot get the driver to find the ups on the USB bus.  
The error message I get is:-
-------------- bcmxcp_usb -u nut -DDDDD -a pw3105 --------------------
Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.10 (2.1.0)

debug level is '5'
Can't set POWERWARE USB configuration
Unable to find POWERWARE UPS device on USB bus
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My ups.conf file contains
----------------- cat ups.conf --------------------
user = nut

[pw3105]
driver = bcmxcp_usb
port = auto
----------------------------------------------

Any help would be greatly appreciated in getting nut working with this UPS.
