As I said earlier, if your HW doesn't work with what's in 2.6.31.5
(minus the glitch of having to unplug & replug which I'll try to
investigate when I have some time), then you should file an upstream bug
on kernel.org bugzilla, and make sure you CC Alan Stern and provide
usbmon logs. That's the only way it's going to get fixed.

Cheers,
Ben.
