I am afraid that maybe the USB Link Cable I am using is not supported.
Is there anything else I could do, some page that would give me some
info on usb different drivers. I looked at Linux USB, but nothing
there.

i don't see why your usb link cable is not supported .. i mean it's
just a cable and USB is supported pretty well under linux now.

Thanks Sharninder,
you gave me some faith. In fact I've been searching and I foung that it really should work (Genesys Logic GL620). Although it only says (linux-usb-users) taht it works and that it is slow and that you have to compile uhci from source. This is pretty confusing for me. I got uhci source from Linux USB, but there is no easy ./configure, make, make install or something like that, no INSTALL or README, which means taht I don't know what to do, ehm ehm. But I have posted my problem to linux-usb-users, so maybe some of them will know.
Anyway  I still hope for some help, my /var/log/syslog still says:
