APC - apcupsd

[Speedy]

According to the apcupsd manual one should enable ugen in the kernel. I'm looking at all available options and I do not see ugen. What happened to it?

If you run a recent FreeBSD version, ugen is the default for all USB devices without specific drivers. So, unless your UPS get picked up as something else than ugen, you're good.

I *think* ugen(4) was subsumed into the USB system recently. However, the man page still exists, and either should not, or should at least not say that there's a kernel module. Please post the question to the freebsd-usb mailing list.

Thanks for replies.
Figured it out. I had the device specified in apcupsd.conf. It appears it works best with USB if DEVICES variable is left blank.
