[Nut-upsuser] No USB/HID UPS found

Hi Peter,

in FreeBSD usb driver is attached to USB controller. During the "bus 
enumeration" "device generic USB driver" is attached (uhid in our case).

If there is no known working FreeBSD installation I expect that we will 
have to do some lower level debuging which will be more time consuming.

Is there any working *BSD installation ?
