No, I had this working on 11.04 ... saying more about the compatibility of the device with NUT more than 8.04, which is so old I've forgotten most of my experience with it. And as a general principle, if it can be made to work on 11.04, then backporting of packages may make it work on 8.04. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
