[Nut-upsuser] howto setup BNT-1500AP on gentoo

[Charles Lepple]

Peter,

Vitaly sent me the strace output off-list, and it appears to be a timeout issue:

29723 open("/dev/ttyS0", O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK|O_EXCL|O_NOCTTY) = 6
29723 flock(6, LOCK_EX|LOCK_NB)         = 0
[...]
29723 write(6, "\1", 1)                 = 1
29723 select(7, [6], NULL, NULL, {3, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
29723 write(2, "data receiving error (-1 instead"..., 46) = 46
29723 select(9, [8], NULL, NULL, {2, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
29723 write(6, "\1", 1)                 = 1
29723 select(7, [6], NULL, NULL, {3, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
29723 write(2, "data receiving error (-1 instead"..., 46) = 46

Vitaly: I'm guessing you tried both /dev/tts/0 and /dev/ttyS0?
