[mythtv-users] UPS with mythbuntu

[UB40D]

I recently had a few power outages and the last one caused a database
corruption that was sufficiently annoying to repair that I just got myself
a UPS.

The maker's web site offers a linux version of their software, with control
panel etc.

Should I be using that, or is there a canonical way to integrate a UPS into
mythbuntu that I should be following instead? The box is a fully dedicated
myth appliance so I'm not actually interested in the control panel.

All I want is basically, when there is a power cut, for the system to shut
down properly, whatever it's doing. OK to miss some recordings, obviously,
and even OK to lose the ones that were maybe recording at the time, but not
ok to fuck up the database or other crucial bits such that the box doesn't
come up properly when the power is back on.

Thanks
