I had been using NUT's Ubuntu package (64 bit) with no problems until
upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04.
What was the previous NUT package version?
^^^ Previous question still stands. Is there an upgrade log
(/var/log/dpkg.log or similar) which mentions the old .deb version?
Previous version from dpkg.log appears to have been nut 2.4.3-1ubuntu5
(Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick) ... now 2.6.0-1ubuntu3 (Ubuntu 11.04 Natty).
If I have time later this weekend, I'll swap out that UPS for one which
uses the usbhid-ups driver and see if I can reproduce the problem.
I seem to have hardware problems with the UPS which is compatible with
that driver, so I can't test with usbhid-ups.
Device:
$ ls -l /dev/bus/usb/006/001
crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 640 2011-06-24 18:29 /dev/bus/usb/006/001
Not in group nut.
I think that part might be a bug in Ubuntu's combination of NUT and
udev (at some point, udev changed the way it matches USB devices). Are
there any messages from udev in syslog?
I tend to agree. Here is what is happening as I see it now. Immediately
after boot, no UPS attached, I see
$ ls -l /dev/usb
total 0
crw--- 1 root root 180, 96 2011-07-01 13:30 hiddev0
crw-rw 1 root lp 180, 0 2011-07-01 13:30 lp0
I have a wireless connected USB keyboard/mouse and an HP printer attached,
along with a QuickCam:

Now, I plug in the UPS:
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 050d:1100 Belkin Components
And in /dev/usb:
$ ls -l /dev/usb
total 0
crw--- 1 root root 180, 96 2011-07-01 13:30 hiddev0
crw--- 1 root root 180, 97 2011-07-01 13:35 hiddev1
crw-rw 1 root lp 180, 0 2011-07-01 13:30 lp0
Note hiddev1 is not in nut group.
Syslog has this:
Jul 1 13:35:57 gimli kernel: [ 370.566651] usb 6-1: new low speed USB
device using uhci_hcd and address 2
Jul 1 13:35:57 gimli kernel: [ 371.024582] generic-usb
0003:050D:1100.0004: hiddev0,hidraw2: USB HID v1.11 Device [Belkin Belkin
UPS] on usb-:00:1d.0-1/input0
Note that hiddev0 is mentioned, but hiddev1 is created. Is that right? (I
don't know much about udev or usb!) It does create hidraw2.
[At boot time, we had the following in syslog:
logitech 0003:046D:C517.0002: input,hiddev0,hidraw1: USB HID v1.10 Mouse
[Logitech USB Receiver] on usb-:00:1a.0-1/input1
So hiddev0 / hidraw1 is the Logitech mouse/keyboard.]
In /dev I see:
$ ls -l /dev/hid*
crw--- 1 root root 251, 0 2011-07-01 13:30 /dev/hidraw0
crw--- 1 root root 251, 1 2011-07-01 13:30 /dev/hidraw1
crw--- 1 root root 251, 2 2011-07-01 13:35 /dev/hidraw2
But I tried one more thing. I powered down the UPS completely and
restarted
everything. (I wondered if the Belkin's USB was hung up.) Now, I get
something different:
$ sudo /lib/nut/usbhid-ups -a mybelkin

If I try -u root

This was fixed in v2.6.1, or more specifically, in r2893:
