We don't have a driver for this device, so any attempts to make this  
work with the existing openSUSE packages are futile. The thread you  
were pointing to is for a different Powercom USB device, using a  
proprietary USB HID protocol. Nobody ever took the trouble of  
writing/completing a driver for it, so it still isn't supported (and  
may never be).

Since your UPS has a different VID:PID combination, there is a remote  
chance that it is using another protocol. To check this out, create  
the following section in /etc/ups/ups.conf:

[explore]
	driver = usbhid-ups
	port = auto
	vendorid = 0d9f
	productid = 0002
	explore

and post the output of the following command (run as 'root') here:

	/usr/lib/ups/driver/usbhid-ups -DDD -u root -a explore

This will run until you stop it with ctrl-C. The first 10 seconds  
worth of output should be enough for now. If you're lucky it will  
speak HID PDC and we should be able to support it fairly quickly.  
However, if it is using something proprietary, this most likely will  
take much longer (if this ever happens).
