putting "auto" is sufficient here

       productid = 0004

this productid should be added to the driver.
before that, I need the output f an lsusb -v -d 0x0d9f:0004

       desc = "My UPS"

good question!

is the driver still running?
what is your start method (ie using invoke-rc.d or alike, or directly
starting components manually)?
what is the content of your upsd.conf?
after having stopped previous instance (invoke-rc.d nut stop), what is the
output of:
$ sudo upsd -v

then, stop upsd (sudo upsd -c stop)
and start in 3 separate consoles:
$ sudo upsd -DDD
$ sudo /lib/nut/usbhid-ups -DDDDD -a powercom
$ upsc powercom

and send back the various output.

cheers,
Arnaud
