[Nut-upsdev] newhidups... at last.

[Arnaud Quette]

Hi Patrick

Happy new year too, and pleased to see the move to newhidups.

Your problem sits in the kernel version (2.4.17).
To take advantage of the driver unbind feature of newhidups / libusb, which
permits to unbind linux hiddev, and to take the hand on the device, you
either need to switch to 2.4.22, or to blacklist MGE units in the linuw hid
stack...

That's why the claiming is failing.
I can find back my old patch, or rebuild one for you, so that you can go on.

Arnaud
