Bug#583371: nut: usbhid-ups failing to communicate with UPS (libusb_get_report: error sending control message)
Hi Arnaud, Since the patch is only a 2 line diff [1], can you upload a targeted fix with this patch for squeeze? I strongly believe that release team will not object to this small fix which is also included in the upstream source. Also, this bug is currently RC.

Bug#583371: nut: usbhid-ups failing to communicate with UPS (libusb_get_report: error sending control message)
Package: nut Version: 2.4.3-1 Severity: grave Tags: squeeze sid Justification: renders package unusable This problem seems identical to the issue previously reported in Ubuntu's BTS at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nut/+bug/572262. Here's the shell transcript from my system, twix: twix:~$ sudo upsdrvctl start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.4.3 Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.34 (2.4.3) USB communication driver 0.31 Using subdriver: CyberPower HID 0.3 libusb_get_report: error sending control message: Operation not permitted Can't initialize data from HID UPS Driver failed to start (exit status=1) twix:~$ cat /etc/nut/ups.conf [cyberpower-ups] driver = usbhid-ups port = auto I have tried unplugging/replugging the device, and I have also tried adjusting the udev rules file to make my specific UPS (a CyberPower 1200 connected via USB) show up as a mode 664 device owned by nut:nut. The only way I can start the driver is by running it manually as root with the '-u root' flag.
