I forget what this error means in the context of USB, but if it happens a lot, I
would be concerned about relying on this UPS. (The kernel basically gave up on
the first attempt to configure it.)

hyouko mentioned the following in a thread in April:
"It could work with drivers 'nutdrv_atcl_usb' (available since NUT
version 2.7.2) or with 'nutdrv_qx' (since 2.7.3)."
Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way to tell which driver is needed,
since the idVendor and idProduct numbers are the same for both hardware
variants.
