I have read this bug with interest as I am also having the same problem (see my question #31020 https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/31020). I seem to have unluckily bought a new PC with a Gigabyte motherboard that contains the aforementioned nVidia USB chipset. :(
I have tried both the 64 bit generic and the rt kernel and the Live CD of the 32 bit Hardy and all have the same problem. I recently noticed that my USB 2 flash drive (memory stick) wont mount either now that I've upgraded to Hardy where previously this did in 7.04.

This might sound like a silly question but why isn't this bug going to be fixed given that it has existed since the kernel 2.6.20 and is still present in the latest kernel shipped with Hardy which is 2.6.24-16?

Does the bug exist in the kernel or is it specific to Ubuntu? If the kernel what is the process of reporting this bug to that team?
