 From what I can tell three's only one active driver. PS shows;

PID   USER     COMMAND
 2045 root     /ffp/bin/usbhid-ups -a APC_UPS
 2047 root     /ffp/sbin/upsd
 2049 root     /ffp/sbin/upsmon -u monuser
 2050 nutmon   /ffp/sbin/upsmon -u monuser

 Running  usbhid-ups -u root -DDDDD -a APC_UPS>debug.log 2>&1 never 
stops without a ^C. The log shows many disconnect and re-connect 
attempts. I'm rather green at Linux thus it'll likely take me a couple 
of days to determine if there's a hotplug/udev issue. Until then I'll 
refrain from posting debug's output.

With appreciation
