Thanks for reporting it. I don't know much of anything about usb-serial, but I'll take a whack at it. Could you enable debug for that driver, launch apcupsd, and report any intersting messages that show up in dmesg? I'd be especially interested in any "Not setting..." or "Not writing..." messages, because some critical-looking code for baud rate setting and similar became conditional in 2.6.22.1 whereas it was always executed before. Apcupsd is going to be rather unhappy if the baud rate doesn't change when it asks. The debug should show if the these operations are being ignored on your hw. --Adam - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | |||||||||
