Thank you for your help guys. I'm adding some answers to your comments here.

Actually I often need to disconnet it, and with speedmgmt the only way I found to get it back to work (when I reconnect it) is a full reboot. Also I don't like seedmgmt much (why does it need to stay running even after it has finished loading the firmware?) > Behalf Of Andrew Benton > Is speedmgmt installed?

It's installed and working on my older PC (that's why I said it's a known good firmware). But I'd like to avoid using it on the new PC and use hotplug fw loading instead. > Behalf Of Jack Eyton-Jones > I am afraid I had not fully understood the hotplugging scenario.

From the log you can see that hotplug finds both firmware files, successfully loads the first one and starts loading the second one but then gives error: kerner: usb 1-1: firmware/speedt timed out on ep5out kerner: usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 5 before completing it. Maybe I have an USB stack issue here. For example if I type a simple "lsusb" from the command line, I get normal output, but I also see several (about 20)errors like the following in /var/log/messages: lsusb: resmgr: server response code 501 Both with code 500 and code 501. Is this normal??? This is a intel P4 machine with sis651 chipset. Has anyone got this working on this chipset?
