[Nut-upsuser] hidups unhandled events on Linux/amd64

[Marek Szuba]

Hello,

I have encountered problems trying to set up nut to work with APC BackUps Pro CS connected over USB to an AMD64 machine running Debian. While apcupsd works fine with that device, whenever I start upsd I get the following messages in syslog:

hidups[23159]: Startup successful

	[and so on]

I've observed this behaviour with several versions of nut, from the one used by sarge, i.e. 2.0.1, up to and including the version available at present in the testing branch, i.e. 2.0.4.

Any ideas? If you need more information, please let me know.
