Have you tried the LONG_TIMEOUT kernel option? USB long timeout for slow-responding devices (some MGE Ellipse UPSes) CONFIG_USB_LONG_TIMEOUT This option makes the standard time out a bit longer. Basically, some devices are just slow to respond, so this makes usb more patient. There should be no harm in selecting this, but it is needed for some MGE Ellipse UPSes. If you have an MGE Ellipse UPS, or you see timeouts in HID transactions, say Y; otherwise say N. I'm curious to see if this helps. I've never managed to get USB of any sort working on my lemon of a Motherboard, so I cannot test it. I use a Visor with Serial Sync. Works fine with evolution. I also strongly recommend the sitescooper and plucker apps to keep your handheld's memory full of articles to read during meetings.
