Here you posted separate system and debug logs. Can you get a single combined logfile? It should be a simple matter of changing an entry in /etc/syslog.conf.

You only attached two of those device files, and you didn't say which two they were. All I can tell you is that the first one shows a controller in an error state. There's one other thing I forgot to mention: When you do this test, after plugging in the PC card, rmmod ehci-hcd. And try plugging the hub into each of the ports; maybe some work better than others. > The debug files were exactly the same > before and after plugging in the USB hub.

That doesn't make sense.

It could well be that the USB/Firewire card is broken.
