I think the apcupsd daemon automatically starts running after you install the package and when you boot the machine. > I run sid, and I've been compiling kernels from kernel.org (I believe this > may be > the reason). What are you running (kernel and version of Debian)? I run sarge and I'm using 2.6.11.8 from kernel.org. I get the occasional message that my power has failed so I think it's working correctly. As the other poster said, you could try the nut package as an alternative. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
