Hmm.  Actually, I did use upsdrvctl.  Exhibit B:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
root at sandbox:~# upsdrvctl start
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.4
Network UPS Tools - Tripp Lite OMNIVS and SMARTPRO driver 0.7 (2.0.5)
Warning: This is an experimental driver.
Some features may not function correctly.

Detected a UPS: TRIPP LITE/TRIPP LITE UPS                
Using OMNIVS 2001 protocol (2001)
Attached to Tripp Lite UPS
root at sandbox:~# ls -l /var/run/nut/
total 4
srw-rw---- 1 nut nut 0 2007-02-16 16:11 tripplite
-rw-r--r-- 1 nut nut 5 2007-02-16 16:11 tripplite_usb-tripplite.pid
root at sandbox:~# upsd
Network UPS Tools upsd 2.0.4
/etc/nut/upsd.conf is world readable
Can't connect to UPS [tripplite] (tripplite_usb-auto): No such file or directory
/etc/nut/upsd.users is world readable
Synchronizing........ giving up

I'm still willing to accept that my configuration sucks :)
