Could it be that you're running virtualization software and that you're running NUT on one of the slaves? > Running usbhid-ups -u root -DDDDD -a APC_UPS>debug.log 2>&1 never > stops without a ^C.

Usually this either means that your USB system isn't setup properly (or you're in a really 'noisy' environment) or that some other process is also attempting to claim the same USB device. This will lead to an endless mess of reconnection attempts for both drivers. USB doesn't really handle this well if you don't use the kernel (HAL) to startup drivers, but instead talk to them directly like we do. We do have HAL addons that would not suffer from this, but these usually are only worth using if you have a graphical desktop. > I'm rather green at Linux thus it'll likely take me a couple > of days to determine if there's a hotplug/udev issue.

The HID parser really doesn't cope with that properly in nut-2.4.1 and before. I have attempted to work around that in the latest version in the SVN trunk. I could be that the problem with the strange readings, is that the logic used to calculate the exponent is off by a factor of 10^256 due to problems with the interpretation of (signed char) values as (unsigned char) on your system. If you post debug output, make sure to include the report descriptor, which would be the most valueable part, together with the initial dump of the variables.
