Never mind that remark, it looks like I have some backporting to do from the trunk if we want to include these changes. The changes to server/upsd.c and server/sstate.c are currently *not* in Testing and therefor, *not* in nut-2.0.5-pre1. Other than that, I think that some recent changes to common/state.c should be backported too, to fix a memory leak in state_delcmd(). Arnaud, what do you think about that?
bug fixes are definitely welcome for the final 2.0.5... so don't hesitate to backport theses change. More generally, I'll start a discussion about the driver polling rate (2 sec) which was accurate with the dumb and old smart units, but which is really too high for recent / verbose units (that also support an interrupt / notification mechanism, allowing to lower the polling rate, while not missing events). thanks for the MGE support during my vacation ;-) Arnaud -- Linux / Unix Expert - MGE UPS SYSTEMS - R&D Dpt Network UPS Tools (NUT) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org/ Debian Developer - http://people.debian.org/~aquette/ OpenSource Developer - http://arnaud.quette.free.fr/ _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
