Hi, I bought a Belkin Active Battery Backup UPS (http://www.belkin.com/uk/activebattery/) yesterday with a USB port and hoped it would work with nut.
The device will show up in /proc/bus/usb/devices as a Cypress Semiconductor USB to Serial. It creates /dev/hiddev0 (and this disappears when the UPS is unplugged). I've tried using belkin, belkinunv, usbhid-ups and megatec_usb. I've tried both the 2.0.5 version in apt for Ubuntu fesity and compiling my own 2.2. All report not being able to find the driver. Relevant bit of /proc/bus/usb/devices included below and the result of usbhid-ups -DDDD -a belkin -u root -x explore -x vendorid=0665 -x productid=5161 (/dev/hiddev0 seems to disappear after I run this).
