Mike,

Thanks for the suggestion, but yes, both usbutils and libusb 
are present under 2.2rc3.

In reading stuff I found on the net, I've pretty much 
convinced myself (perhaps wrongly) that the HID driver 
itself is not loaded on Endian 2.2rc3 (the competing 
explanation being that the HID driver is loaded, but for 
some reason not binding to the UPS).

Unfortunately, if the HID driver is not loaded, it seems I'm 
stuck recompiling the 2.2rc3 kernel with an altered config 
file.  I'll explore that later today (I've got to download 
all the Endian kernel source packages and look through their 
kernel.config file).

Unfortunately, while recompiling the kernel would 
potentially let me get my Endian install configured the way 
I need it, that solution would make it rather impractical to 
distribute apcupsd as simple "rpm package" for 2.2.rc3.

Regards,

Igor
