Sure about lspci not seeing the card at all? That would sound like a hardware 
problem to me - if not that then a BIOS problem of the computer that you have 
used here.

"lspci" - to all I know - doesn't do any magic: it simply reports the devices 
on the PCI bus.

Maybe you could check on the same machine with a different OS?

Of course not. If the card is not visible as a PCI device, then it can't be 
detected.

Not if it's not seen on the PCI bus.

The way it looks now, this is not a USB problem at all. And this list 
therefore likely the wrong place to ask.
