[Nut-upsuser] Status of tripplite_usb driver?

[Gregory Gulik]

I have a Tripp Lite SMART1500 RMXL2U UPS and I'd love to be able to 
access it via USB.  I found that the latest NUT sources in CVS has a 
driver that looks like it might work.

Any chance that driver would work the my UPS?

I tried running it and it's not working:

failed to detach kernel driver from USB device...
trying again to claim USB device...
failed to claim USB device, trying 1 more time(s)...
detaching kernel driver from USB device...
