Hi!

I would like buy UPS, so I was wondering is someone can give me some advice on using it under linux ?

Now I have Ubuntu Hardy, but planning to replace it with openSuse 11

My machine:
core2duo
4GB ram
500GB hdd
Nvidia 8600 GT
Abit motherbord
Power suplay: 400 W

I've always used APC UPSes with Linux. They work well with the apcupsd software.

It works under linux, not too expensive...and should cover my needs..
