If powerchute can't communicate with the ups then u got the wrong cable,
this happened to me, i had 1 out of 4(or 5?) ups programs that support
"smart" mode work, the rest did not.  

i was suprised to see that the cables were so different, my back ups pro
was brand new(boxed) and yet it came with a cable that only appeared to
work with windows.  even more odd is that powerchute for win* worked fine
through VMWare in linux..on the grey cable..i wish i understood what was
different(and why its different) between their *nix and win* programs.
