Hi all,

Well, I must be missing something so obvious, that it isn't even in the documentation: How to stop all instances of a driver.

I tried this on my system, since I use the usbhid-ups:

n...@grisen:~$ ps ax | grep usbhid
  238 ?        S      0:00 [usbhid_resumer]
 1035 ?        Ss    37:14 /lib/nut/usbhid-ups -a PingvinUPS
24223 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep usbhid


I would not dare to use "kill" on neither the usbhid_resumer nor the usbhid-ups with the system running in a remote location.

/lib/nut/usbhid-ups -h gives no clue about how to shut down, the "-k" option probably would shut down the UPS, not the driver.

So I searched the mail archives using keywords:

"error sending control message"
"libusb_get_report"

If some useful answer came up, I failed to find it.

Searching with google:

libusb_get_report site:www.networkupstools.org
and
debug site:www.networkupstools.org

Nothing here, either.

Can someone tell me how? Please be gentle, I feel like this should be a simple task...

Best regards,
Niels Kristian Jensen

(many more resource errors follow)

The last lines are telling you what is going on:

   4.547868     libusb_get_report: error sending control message: Device or
resource busy
   4.547886     Can't retrieve Report 06: Device or resource busy
   4.547900     Got disconnected by another driver: Device or resource busy

Well, I probably need to shut down NUT somehow to release the resource?

Yes. You can only claim a device once, so in order to get meaningful
output, you must stop all instances of usbhid-ups before starting it in
debug mode.

Best regards, Arjen
