Poor Carlos, he is getting all the flak, while the problem is in the megatec_usb.c... :-) > I'm thinking of a recent timeout problem (was 1000 instead of 5000). > Do you see something? Increasing the timeout value here, is the worst fix possible. Under no circumstance should drivers hang around that long in upsdrv_updateinfo(). The problem here is that none of the subdrivers in 'megatec_usb.c' in nut-2.2.1 handle the return codes from the libusb functions properly. By sending the EAGAIN error code, they clearly indicate that the command needs to be retried, instead of declaring it a failure. This might be handled a little better from r1211 onwards, which added a the possibility to reconnect. I'm not sure if reconnecting is the proper way to handle this though. It might be better to just retry the command the next time. Best regards, Arjen -- Eindhoven - The Netherlands Key fingerprint - 66 4E 03 2C 9D B5 CB 9B 7A FE 7E C1 EE 88 BC 57
