This is perhaps a permissions problem.
You need to give newhidups the "-u root" option, or else it will drop
root privileges and probably not be able to open the device. Also,
the newhidups driver has no "start" argument.
Try this: kill all running drivers, and stop upsd and upsmon. Then:
/lib/nut/newhidups -u root -DD -a belkin-ups
