Depends on what are you doing. From the "-110" consistency
it sounds like you are trying to get the device working 
within a VM (mere USB emulation is known not to work,
if you want to use it in a VM you need a dedicated ehci
for that)

If that's not the case, you could check what's going on
on the usb protocol level. For Linux the easiest way
is probably to load the "usbmon" module and monitor the
traffic between the device and the driver.
(If you don't want to deal with the usb log yourself,
you can capture the data and sent the email to me
(without cc'ing the ML).)

Reagards,
