With the confirmation of David that USB 3024 support was added after 2.7.4, I looked at the nightly builds and found that 2.8.0 is already in beta for us. I tested it, but in spite of my troubleshooting attempts, some extended parts didn't work for me, so I
took that usbhid-ups driver and integrated it into the 2.7.4, and it worked, as long as I remember to run upsd as root to load the drivers as root as well. (multiple-steps workaround).</div>

<div dir="auto">I'm mostly not online for a few more days, so can't check directly.
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">The general answers to the two questions would be:</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">1) checking if it is there:</div>
<div dir="auto">* revise if it is mentioned in the NEWS file (in sources - release tarball or on github);</div>
<div dir="auto">* check issues on github;</div>
<div dir="auto">* search/grep for 3024 in current/release-tagged codebase...</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">2) getting it to your system: versioning looks debianish, some distros/repos (sid, experimental?) already shipped 2.8.0, maybe you can lift such a build to your box. Otherwise, build your own (in this case current master may be preferable to
a year-old release with its few known issues baked in and fixed since, or making and adding custom patches to existing package recipe). It may be possible Several styles of instructions are in source docs, github wiki...</div>
