Hi, |

I have been trying to do this with other programs. It seems every time |
| 4 |
I turn around though it is not working like it should. I used powstatd |
| 5 |
back when I was using Mandrake. It is really small, easy to set up, and |
| 6 |
it works very well. I recently found out that nut does not work like I |
| 7 |
thought it was. It does not shutdown my puter or anything. It just |
| 8 |
sits there running. I can get the info from the UPS though, temps and all. |

This program is what works with CyberPower UPSs. It is what CyberPower |
| 11 |
said to use and it works well, except on Gentoo. It can work on almost |
| 12 |
any UPS though. I have a good bit of info about this program but I have |
| 13 |
no programing experience at all. It has not changed in years so it |
| 14 |
likely will be very easy to maintain. This is the home page: |
| 15 |
http://dollar.biz.uiowa.edu/powstatd/man.html The email address for the |
| 16 |
person that wrote powstatd is there as well, It's at the bottom. I |
| 17 |
contacted him a long time ago but I guess he got busy and forgot. Then |
| 18 |
I thought I had something that was working too. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
I have a computer that I can install Mandrake on and do a install to see |
| 21 |
where everything goes. Maybe then me and someone can figure out how to |
| 22 |
make it work on Gentoo. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Is there a kind soul here that would be willing to help a Gentoo nut get |
| 25 |
this working? I have never done anything like this before. I dunno if |
| 26 |
you should hope this is the start of something or not. LOL |

Thanks for any help you can provide. |
