erf, looks like, I didn't make my homework correctly, sorry.

So :
yuggoth blaz # upsdrvctl -u root start
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.0
Network UPS Tools - Energizer USB UPS driver 0.01 (2.0.0)

Warning: This is an experimental driver.
Some features may not function correctly.

No Energizer UPS detected
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)
