Package: apcupsd
Version: 3.14.4-1lenny1
Severity: normal
man apcupsd does not mention USB connections or many recent models of
APC UPS's. Fortunately, the apcupsd web site does, and the version in
Debian supports them.
/usr/share/doc/apcupsd/apcupsd.man does mention USB, though it says it
is obsolete on the top.
The comments in apcupsd.conf do mention USB.
For the record, the key points I got were
1. UPSCABLE and UPSTYPE should both be usb.
2. DEVICE should be commented out.
3. NETSERVER must be on if you want to monitor battery status
(apcaccess), even if you are running a single machine directly
connected to a single UPS.
