</div>^^^ Previous question still stands. Is there an upgrade log<br>

</div>I think that part might be a bug in Ubuntu's combination of NUT and<br>
udev (at some point, udev changed the way it matches USB devices). Are<br>
there any messages from udev in syslog?<br></blockquote><div><br>I tend to agree. Here is what is happening as I see it now. Immediately after boot, no UPS attached, I see<br>$ ls -l /dev/usb<br>total 0<br>crw------- 1 root root 180, 96 2011-07-01 13:30 hiddev0<br>
