I tried to run newhidups myself with the debugging messages turned on and I
got the following response:

It seems like the kernel might already have a driver loaded, but I am not
that familiar with the USB system.

actually, this part is normal. The device is blacklisted from the kernel
usbhid driver so that it can be claimed in userspace by newhidups.

Did you see any error messages from the driver or other NUT components?
