Different computers have different USB hub controller options, like
UHCD and EHCD. On your first big compile, install all of these in
(Device Drivers / USB Support / USB Host Controller Drivers). Once
that's done, you can pull some off and see what works.
This is true. Try looking through dmesg to see if it says anything
about uhci/ohci/ehci. My two USB controllers enable all three.
$ dmesg | grep '[eou]hci'

Also, if you can get another system booted (live cd maybe), you can
try to run lspci (from PCI Utils). Here's some sample output from my
system:
$ lspci -v

Good luck. Figuring out kernel modules is a tough game when you're
just getting started.
