Nut upsuser - Dec 2008 - APC Back-UPS ES-750

At one time I had my Back-UPS ES-750 working with nut and the
usbhid-ups driver.  Not sure what has changed, but I can't get the
driver to load now.  It exits with this error:

Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.2.2
Network UPS Tools: 0.29 USB communication driver - core 0.33 (2.2.2)

No matching HID UPS found
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)

lsusb -v gives me:

Sorry about the noise.  Please ignore.  The distro setup the ups user
incorrectly.
