Yes. I am actually running a development version of NUT now since the driver
for my UPS had some problems in the 2.0 series.

One gotcha I ran into is if you install nut after you plugged in a usb
ups, then you aren't going to have proper access to the device. You need
to either reboot or unplug and plug back in the ups so that the udev rules
installed with nut trigger.

It looks like you probably want to use the ippon driver.
