If this part of the log hasn't been trimmed, that means that libusb is not seeing your UPS. Which version of libusb do you have?

IIRC, there is a test app in the libusb-0.1 distribution that prints information from a libusb bus scan (which may be slightly different from what the kernel sees). Can you try compiling and running that? Let us know if you run into trouble finding it.
