Thanks for the links.  I'll check them out.  This is my first ups for
my home computer.  Although I've dealt with ups' at work, that is in a
windows environment.  I only use linux at home.  So, I need to get up
to speed on the issue.

Larry's Cyberpower link was great.  Although the 32bit version had a
segmentation fault when I tried to run it, installing from the .tar.gz
file worked fine.  You have to go to a commandline prompt to bring up
current status (charge, load and backup up time, etc.), but you can
get the information easily enough.  It was also easy to set up the
shutdown configuration for AC Power Fail and Low Battery.

So, it appears to be up and running just as I had hoped.  I think I am
going to be quite happy with it.

Barry
