Nut upsuser - Dec 2007 - mge pc 675 does not work with usb-hidups

On opensuse 10.3, i installed nut and configured my ups.conf like i did it on 
opensuse 10.2 by putting (10.3 , nut 2.2.0):

[MGEpc675]
        driver = usbhid-ups
        port = auto
        desc = "MGEpc675"

instead of (10.2 , nut 2.0.4) :

[MGEpc675]
        driver = newhidups
        port = auto
        desc = "MGEpc675"

But it doesn't work.
It appears that upsdrvctl does not succeed. It says it cannot find any USB HID 
device.

Any help would be appreciated.

What does the output of 'rpm -q nut' show you?

The NUT package that was shipped with openSUSE 10.3 is badly broken with
respect to USB support. Make sure that you install *all* updates and
restart your system before attempting to configure NUT. This has to deal
with how newer kernels deal with udev, which is incompatible with earlier
versions.

Great !
That solved the problem and now i can show my ups level with knutclient on my 
desktop.
Thanks a lot.
Do you think i shall file a bug report about that ? Or is it a known bug about 
to be solved ?

Anyway, happy new year.
