[Nut-upsuser] nut 2.6.1 on OpenSolaris/OpenIndiana doesn't find Tripp-Lite ECO550 UPS

[Kostas Oikonomou]

Ok, thanks. I also read a bunch of other posts on this. 
However, I can't figure out the right parameters to the 
add_drv or update_drv command:


$ pfexec /usr/sbin/add_drv -m '* 0660 nut ups' -i 'usb5/2' ugen
("usb5/2") already in use as a driver or alias.

$ pfexec /usr/sbin/update_drv -m '* 0660 nut ups' -i 
'usb5/2' ugen
devfsadm: driver failed to attach: ugen
Warning: Driver (ugen) successfully added to system but 
failed to attach
$

The "usb5/2" I'm using comes from

$ /usr/sbin/cfgadm -lv usb5/2
