 This doesn't seem to fix the problem. I forgot to mention that i also
 thought it was a regex missmatch, and i've tried ugen[0-9.]+ and also
 ugen[0-9\.] and i've also tried ugen[0-9]+.[0-9]+ with no luck.
 
 I thought the problem has to do with the `/etc/devd/usb.conf` file which
 exists on 9.0 and didn't existed on 8.2. From the devd's debugging i see
 that the last matched rule is:
 
 Testing bus=3Duhub3 against ^uhub[0-9]+
 Testing mode=3Dhost against ^host
 Testing intclass=3D0x03 against ^0x03
 
 which is present in the `usb.conf` file.
 
 I suspect that `devd`, for some reason, doesn't really try to match against
 the rules from my `nut.conf` file. However, when `devd` starts in debugging
 mode, it does mention parsing my file:
 
 [root at fw /usr/home/packardb]# devd -D -d
 Parsing /etc/devd.conf
 setting
 scsi-controller-regex=3D(aac|adv|adw|aha|ahb|ahc|ahd|aic|amd|amr|asr|bt|cis=
 s|ct|dpt|esp|ida|iir|ips|isp|mlx|mly|mpt|ncr|ncv|nsp|stg|sym|trm|wds)[0-9]+
 Parsing files in /etc/devd
 Parsing /etc/devd/asus.conf
 Parsing /etc/devd/uath.conf
 Parsing /etc/devd/usb.conf
 Parsing files in /usr/local/etc/devd
 Parsing /usr/local/etc/devd/nut.conf
 ...
 
 And i've also symlink()ed my `nut.conf` file in /etc/devd/ directory.
 Still, no luck!

 The reason is in the above information. =C2=A0You are matching against<br>
 &quot;ugen[0-9]+&quot; but the device is &quot;ugen1.3&quot;. =C2=A0Note th=

 Try fixing the<br>
