This issue seems to be gradually getting fixed on my system (Dell
Dimension 4700 with BIOS Rev. A10). In contrast wit the experience of
Alessio Treglia's (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-
source-2.6.20/+bug/125250/comments/12 ), all of the USB problems seem to
be resolved for me if I use kernel release 2.6.24-19-generic (Hardy).

I'm not sure if one or more automatic update(s) have changed something.
I have the Proposed repository enabled, and I always accept kernel- and
driver-related updates. I've noticed that there have been quite a few
changes to 2.6.24-19-generic that start out in Proposed and eventually
make their way to Recommended.

Even mounting the USB camera works in 2.6.24-19-generic for me, but only after 
following the instructions at 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4979460&postcount=2 

With kernel 2.6.20-16-generic (Hardy), everything seems to work, except
that the USB camera importing errors out -- images are listed in F-Spot,
but fail to actually import. I'm not sure if this is an issue in F-Spot
or something to do with the more general USB bug that is the main topic
of this discussion. (I can provide more details on the error if it would
help.)

I got into kernel issues originally due to Hibernate/Suspend problems,
and unfortunately 2.6.24-19-generic still does not do it for me.

For now, I boot into 2.6.24-19-generic if I need to import photos, and
restart into 2.6.20-16-generic if I need to be able to
Suspend/Hibernate.
