I'm probably not the most knowledgable person with regard to the newhidups driver, but I think something in the line of newhidups -u root -x productid=4002 -x vendorid=09ae -a tl6000 might work. If the driver goes into the background, you could try if you can fire up upsd -u root and see if you're able to read anything from it through upsc [EMAIL PROTECTED] If the latter produces readings from the UPS, you may want to look at what is written after 'ups.status'. This should read 'OL' (at least) and should change to 'OB' if you unplug it. In that case, you'd better follow the instructions from the INSTALL file, with the exception that you need two additional parameters in ups.conf productid=4002 vendorid=09ae If this all works, please let us know and we'll be happy to add this productid to the list of supported UPSes. No need for bribes.
