However I'm not sure it's what I've been experiencing. It's not that my card isn't accepted by linux, it just causes instability. I have definitely managed to stabilise the card on my 2.6.17 gentoo (pentium) box but last night I cross compiled the same (Hg) sources for my (2.6.16) Arm based system and it's as unstable as ever. I have tried a powered hub too, but there's no perceivable improvement that I can tell. :( Next move is to upgrade my kernel to 2.6.17 and see if there's any difference - after that it's either a poor USB implementation on my arm device (Linksys NSLU2) or an 'endian' issue with the drivers.
