If you run "tail -f /var/log/messages" before you plug in the UPS,
you should see what device is being created when you plug in the
UPS. I suspect it looks like a USB serial port.

You may also want to run "lsusb -vs 4:15" or "lsusb -vd 050d:0980"
to get more detail about it. Personally, I like to look at
/proc/bus/usb/devices for the information. The driver listing will
usually indicate what kind of device was created.
