I saw the same symptoms with a device
(http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/showdev.php?id=2739). I finally gave
up on it, reported it as unsupported, and ordered another from a
different vendor.

Have you checked to see if the device is known to be compatible (or
not)? http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/.

Have you tried it under a 2.4 or 2.6 kernel? I am finding out that 2.6
kernels have USB related problems 2.4 kernels do not.
