Hi Guillaume, I think you got a 'hid' ups. It shows all the right descriptors to comply with the ups hid document. http://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs/pdcv10.pdf
Look at Device descriptor on page 46. The 'USB to Serial' is reported from lsusb as it is in the list. Like if cypress and product 2 then it is a usb to serial. So what you have to do is to trick the newhidups driver to find the ups. You can set ------------------- generic vendorid=0665 ------------------ In the define tag of your ups in 'ups.conf' (Check the man page for newhidups) Now you have to run it with debug ./newhidups -DDDD -u root -a blazer2000usb As it don't do much when generic is defined. If this seems to give something back, put it on the mail list and we go from there. If it was a serial with some 'proprietary' protocol it should say class = ff on the interface, and not 03 that say it is a hid device.
