I haven't tried these packages myself yet, but I'm wondering if anyone has 
tested USB with this kernel? I know it didn't work for me with 
2.6.8-1-generic but it works fine with 2.4.27-1-generic. The box is a 
PWS600au and the USB controller is :

0000:00:07.3 USB Controller: Contaq Microsystems 82c693 (prog-if 10 [OHCI])
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 10
        Memory at 0000000009a74000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
