Alan,
I think I'd try going back to slow speed usb as a last resort; I'm doing all of this to load pictures from a camera card to the PC quickly, so I'd prefer speed.
I'm going to try the BIOS update first, then the noload uption on boot. Maybe that'll help.
On a tangent, is this most likely a problem with my pc hardware, or with my SD card reader / writer? I ask because if there's a similar device that's known to work, I can just go buy it; these things seem to range from $10 to $25, and I'd consider that to be in the range that I'd rather just replace the part rather than spend the time diagnosing the problem. Maybe a cop-out, but hey, you gotta pick your battles, I guess.

The error messages in your log indicate the card reader isn't
communicating properly with your computer. In addition to the suggestions
in the linux-usb.org FAQ, you can try "rmmod ehci-hcd". This will leave
you running on a USB 1.1 controller instead of the USB 2.0 controller, so
you won't get the benefit of high speed transfers. On the other hand, it
may be that the hardware isn't quite so finicky when running at the lower
speed, so perhaps it will start to work.
