Yes I am.  The belkin BullDog makes a tmp file on disk, and gkrellMBUPS 
reads that file for its display data, or at least thats what I had to do 
to make it mostly work.  Its currently showing me input and output 
voltages, battery voltage, the two frequencies, and its internal temp of 
44C which is way too hot for lead acid gelcells, and a loading of 0.0%, 
so that obviously isn't right but its usable.  Loading on BullDog 
monitors own display is indicated correctly I believe.  The string in the 
temp/load chart box is: "t:\f$tC,\.l:\f$l%" w/o the quotes.  I don't 
recall playing with it.  ISTR I pulled it over from the FC2 drive and it 
worked, 2.2.9-something I think.  The executables are from an FC6 rpm 
though.

Humm, the incoming msgs had nalens as the main, and Cc: to jutley.  I was 
hitting reply all, which I didn't this time.
