I have a system with six usb ports on
it's rear, however I have found that
that's not even enough so I recently
went out and bought a four-port iogear
usb hub and attached it to one of my
existing ports.  I've put a Cyborg
3D joystick on it first and I think at
that point it was working and joydev
properly identified it.  I added a
couple of other devices to it like a
usb serial port, a midi keyboard and
now a flash card reader.  Some point
along the way I noticed that my joystick
was showing up as Unknown device in
usbview and I've tryed reloading joydev,
unplugging and replugging the joystick
and even restarting.  I haven't gotten
it to work since on that same usb hub
thought the other devices are working.
I decided to take my usb mouse which
was hooked directly up to my system and
swap it with the joystick and both
devices worked.  When I swapped them
back to their original positions, the
joystick no longer worked.

I've also seen other weird things with
that hub like when I unplug one usb
device, another one also disappears
sometimes, can't remember anything
specific though.

Could this just be a cheap and buggy
usb hub, as I got it free after rebate,
or is there some bug with the linux
drivers?  If it is just a cheap hub, is
there someplace to look for good hubs
that will work with linux or any good
brand names to use?
