Try this:  With the dongle unplugged, run
$ dmesg

Make a note of the last line.  Then plug in the dongle and give it a 
moment to settle.  Then run dmesg again.  This will tell you what the 
system thinks it is seeing.  You may also get error messages, chipset 
info, or other things that you can plug into your favorite search engine. 

If you can't find anything useful (or that makes sense to you) post the 
output here and maybe someone will have better ideas for you..

Good luck
