I just found an old firewire card that I had laying around and tried
that.  The enclosure has firewire so I figured it'd be worth a shot.
It worked find with the ohci1394 and sbp2 drivers.  I think I'll just
stick with this.  USB seems to have some problems on this motherboard.

I have an Asus M2N laptop and a separate IDE disk enclosure, with the same behaviour. I can access the disk through firewire, but the USB2 interface on the inclosure gives no response whatsoever.
