Yes I know, mine always returns 29.2... Too bad that the manufacturers don't make it clearer when a thermal sensor is present and when it's not. The only thing we can do, I suppose, is look at the UPS device name string and have a blacklist in the driver for devices which are known to not have a thermal sensor. The benefit might not be worth the maintenance cost though. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
