[Nut-upsuser] No USB/HID UPS found

[Peter Selinger]

Hi Vlado,

your issue seems to be an issue of lower-level USB support. Not only
does NUT fail to find your ups, but it fails to find *any* USB devices
or controllers. Normal output from "newhidups -u root -DDDDD auto" 
should look like this:

Network UPS Tools: New USB/HID UPS driver 0.28 (2.1.0)

debug level is '5'
Checking device (0000/0000) (003/001)

No appropriate HID device found
No matching USB/HID UPS found

Perhaps you don't have libusb installed? Is "lsusb" showing anything
on your system? -- Peter
