[Nut-upsuser] Tripp Lite OMNI900LCD

[Hans Fugal]

I have a Tripp Lite OMNI900LCD. It has a usb connector and claims to
be USB/HID. I haven't been able to get it to work with newusbhid or
tripplite_usb.

Here's lsusb -v output:

If I specify productid then tripplite_usb will recognize the match but
then fails with this error:

Checking device (09AE/2005) (001/013)
- VendorID: 09ae
- ProductID: 2005
- Manufacturer: Tripp Lite
- Product: TRIPP LITE UPS

- Bus: 001
Trying to match device

detaching kernel driver from USB device...
trying again to claim USB device...
HID descriptor retrieved (Reportlen = 459)
Size read for the report descriptor: 4294967221
Unable to get Report descriptor (-75)

After that /dev/usb/hiddev0 disappears and things appear to be
generally ugly until I replug the USB cable.

I can't get newhidups to recognize it at all.

Any suggestions?
