            How to prevent these messages? Is something wrong
            (probably). How to debug it.

            Thanks,

            CentOS 5.4
            nut-2.2.0-7.el5
            nut-client-2.2.0-7.el5


        Upgrade NUT to the latest version first. Loads of changes have
        been made to the usbhid-ups driver since nut-2.2.0 was
        released well over three years ago. We no longer support this
        version.

        Best regards, Arjen


    Okay, I upgraded to 2.4.3 and restarted nut. I still get:

    Oct 20 11:33:16 alkmene kernel: usb 3-1: usbfs: process 16588

    (usbhid-ups) did not claim interface 0 before use
    Oct 20 11:33:48 alkmene last message repeated 43 times
    Oct 20 11:34:50 alkmene last message repeated 85 times


upgrading NUT is not enough: you also have to stop the old instances and start new ones that use the newly installed version. this remark comes from the fact the PID above (16588) is the same than the previous "faulty" one.

Ah, this is a very good observation of you! I did run a 'service ups restart', but the usbhid-ups process wasn't killed. I had to manually kill it. From now on, a restart of the ups service does restart the usbhid-ups process as expected. Perhaps I should have issued a 'service ups stop' before I upgraded from 2.2 to 2.4 as I expect that the 2.2 /etc/init.d/ups would killed the usbhid-ups process.

Furthermore, the 'usbhid-ups did not claim interface 0 before use' messages now have disappeared. So also Arjen's advice to upgrade was useful :)

Thanks,
Mark


cheers,
Arnaud
