ups units under Linux

[Scott Howell]

Folks, do any of you know if any of the newer APC usb-based ups units  
work under Linux? I see several packages that work with serial  
devices, but no mention of usb, but I'm sure serial-based devices are  
still around, but seeing as serial ports are limited generally to  
one, I wanted to find a new ups that was usb-based if possible. My  
old Best Power network appliance will being needing new batteries  
soon and at about $300 for the batteries, well I think I can get away  
with less ups at this point.

tnx
