[Nut-upsuser] Problem detecting USB/HID UPS

[Brian Foster]

Ok, I fooled around with the driver some more, and if I run:

sudo /lib/nut/newhidups -u root -DDDDD auto

I get some output, and the driver makes a connection to the UPS.  At 
this point, it seems to be a permissions problem (which I don't know how 
to fix, with USB).

If I run,

/lib/nut/newhidups -u root -DDDDD auto

I get this:
