Yes, I figured it wouldn't be that useful but I thought I'd post anyway,
thanks for taking a look at it.  KVM's actually has some more USB
support done to it recently that may help (QEMU too, of course).  When I
get a second I might retry and see if I get any further, but it seems
those seconds come few and far between recently.

I tried running usbsnoop (and SnoopyPro and at least one other one based
on the same driver) under vista home, but none of them appear to work
with vista.  And lacking a way to install real XP on this laptop, the
fact the reader is built-in makes that a doing as you suggest a real
problem. 

If someone has pointers on how to get a (non-shareware) usb trace under
vista, I'd be all ears.  Otherwise it looks like I can't be much help.
