Public bug reported: Similar to whatPaavo Leinonen reported in 031601ce2a49$20b2efe0$6218cfa0$@leinonen.fi on the NUT mailing list. See also my mail in reply.
Ubuntu runs modemmanager as a native upstart service. nut-server ends up running in parallel (on my system, probably a matter of timing). When modemmanager scans the serial ports for modems, upsd is unable to open the port configured for an UPS. (It might be possible to exclude some ports from the scan, I didn't check because I have no modem it could configure, I just kicked the package. Please convert nut-server to a native upstart service to be able to have it wait for modemmanager. (I hope upstart is clever enough to have a service wait for an optional package and let it proceed if not installed.) ** Affects: nut (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1176548 Title: nut-server collides with modemmanager To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nut/+bug/1176548/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
