What kernel options did you have to enable? Also, what devices were created when you connected this thing to your system? I don't see any /dev/usb at all, nor do I find any hiddev devices anywhere...

i should mention that this is the USB version, cable number: 940-0127B .
it shows up in dmesg: | Code: | Manufacturer: APC
Product: Back-UPS ES 500 FW:2.e2.D USB FW:e2
SerialNumber: JB0312030497 |
and in cat /proc/bus/usb/devices: | Code: | T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#= 2 Spd=1.5 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=051d ProdID=0002 Rev= 1.06
S: Manufacturer=APC
S: Product=Back-UPS ES 500 FW:2.e2.D USB FW:e2

C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=e0 MxPwr= 2mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=03(HID ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=hid
E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 6 Ivl=10ms |
cat /proc/bus/usb/drivers yields: | Code: | usbdevfs

got it working  yay me. the ebuild forgets to do the following: | Code: | #!/bin/sh
mkdir -p /dev/usb/hid
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev0 c 180 96
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev1 c 180 97
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev2 c 180 98
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev3 c 180 99
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev4 c 180 100
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev5 c 180 101
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev6 c 180 102
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev7 c 180 103
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev8 c 180 104
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev9 c 180 105
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev10 c 180 106
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev11 c 180 107
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev12 c 180 108
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev13 c 180 109
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev14 c 180 110
mknod /dev/usb/hid/hiddev15 c 180 111 |
which should be in the <apcupsd src directory>/examples/make-hid file.
additionally, the ebuild only listed hid0-9 in the generated conf file, not 0-15 as it should be. to whom/where do i submit a patch? |
