The libusb-1.0 branch is more stable with that UPS, but the UPS is still  
crap. The communications can be reliably reset by disconnecting and  
reconnecting the USB cable, so it should be theoretically possible to  
recover by completely shutting down and reenabling the USB port, but I  
haven't found a way to do that in Linux.
