Robert, it would help somewhat if you could build a kernel with CONFIG_USB_DEBUG turned on and post the dmesg log showing what happens when you plug in one of those non-working devices.

Sorry, yes I should have done that before...

Yes, in principle Linux can be made to switch over to full speed when high speed fails. But there are limitations: The switchover would work only for devices plugged directly into the computer, not for devices plugged into a high-speed hub. And some Linux systems (not regular PCs) have EHCI implementations that don't allow such a switch -- or if they do, I'm not aware of how to accomplish it.

Interesting, I have a USB 2.0 hub, but have not tried it, mainly because I need to find a power supply for it first.
But regardless if the hub works as USB 2.0 or 1.1, it could be that another hub behaves differently, just like I have one USB 2.0 memory key that still works as such.

BTW, depending on the kind of failure the system does not keep retrying indefinitely. It gives up after four attempts.
