Hi Dirk, I see you do indeed have a VIA hub. These are notorious for not working properly. What kernel version are you using by the way?

Is it likely to matter which one? Avoid ports on the front of the case, since they usually have longer cables. The speedtouch modems have sometimes caused problems by drawing too much power from the motherboard - you could try sticking it in a powered external hub instead (i.e. one that gets its juice from a power plug in the wall, not from your computer). > It seems that there are a number of reported errors on start up as well, > it seems only to "just" work normally.
