<DIV><BR>I've just checked again, and all the files in /lib/nut are executable
in a fresh jaunty install.<BR>otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to run the
driver nor get the above output!<BR>so I found this strange, you should check
again... it's probably the devices privileges mentioned above.<BR>and this one
is possibly due to a bug in the package.<BR><BR></DIV></DIV>
<DIV>we seem to face a completely different issue here than the one on the
QNAP.<BR>I'd first like to be sure that you're unit is working (or not) in
jaunty before getting back to the QNAP.<BR><BR>I've just checked the code (which
has been revamped), and the specific part seem similar (can't be 100% sure
though). now, I'll have to add some more trace to get more visibility.<BR>I'll
probably ping you tomorrow to test the latest subversion trunk. ok with that
method?<BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Yes that will be fine. I will be away from home the next
3 days but I will test when I return.</FONT></DIV>
