Greets, So my wonderful new apartment is impressively lacking on decent power (only two 15 amp fuses), which I'm sure will bite me one day as I'm writing the last chapter of my groundbreaking dissertation and haven't saved in far too long. Therefore, I'm going to go buy a UPS or two for my router and desktop. However, besides the knowledge that I really should buy one, I know nothing else about them. Basically, I need one which will work with Linux in a useful manner. More or less, it should have a serial connection (do any currently deal with USB s.t. a linux box can get the shutdown signal?) and a decent amount of power (5 minutes? 10 minutes?) Any recommendations? -Seth -- "It is by will alone I set my mind in motion" - Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" on the first line of the message body to discuss-request at blu.org (Subject line is ignored).
