[Nut-upsuser] Crash when I start driver

Wed Dec 5 01:59:01 UTC 2007

It's been a while since I tried to use NUT, so I thought I would give it
another try.  Big trouble.

The UPS is a Tripp-Lite AVR 550U.  It has only a USB connector.
The computer is running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
I just installed NUT version 2.2.0.  I'm going through the steps in
the INSTALL document.

# cat ups.conf
[igor]
         driver = usbhid-ups
         port = auto
         desc = "Igor's computer UPS"
         vendorid = 09ae

When I run the command
# ../bin/usbhid-ups -a igor -DD -u root
it produces the long output which is attached below.
Then the machine crashes.  I think the UPS just turns off
the power.  The log file contains the line
Dec  4 16:05:26 computer kernel: usb 2-2: USB disconnect, address 2

As you might guess, I am out of favor with the guy who uses the
machine.  I won't get to touch it again unless I can convince him
that I know what I'm doing.

Can anyone explain this?
