Back-UPS

I am new Linux(SUSE 10) from Windows XP. I am enjoying Marcel's new book(also enjoyed your 2 hr interview on Computer Am.) Have question for you or anyone with ideas on Back-UPS. I live in Florida, a place with lots of interrupted power to my house. With XP I set program to automatically shut down when I lose power. How do Linux users approach this? My computer stays on all time.

Thanks,
pwc

Back-UPS

Today I went through the NUT site and see that many of the Back-ups units are supported with the different cables available. Configuring is confusing at first but plug away. When you get it working from the command line, try Knutclient for a GUI tool.

Good luck
