installing ndiswrapper, rebooting and loosing usb device..


situation is following:
slackware 10.2, linux 2.6.18, gcc 3.4.6


#lsusb
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 1668:6097 Actiontec Electronics, Inc. [hex]
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

#dmesg
...
usb usb2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
hub 2-0:1.0: USB hub found
hub 2-0:1.0: 2 ports detected
ohci_hcd 0000:00:0f.1: OHCI Host Controller
ohci_hcd 0000:00:0f.1: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 3

usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2
usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
...

then i'm installing ndiswrapper (cd ndiswrapper-1.28 & make distclean && make && make install) and windows driver for actiontec (ndiswrapper -i aeiwlnic.inf && depmod -a && modprobe ndiswrapper)

#dmesg
...
ndiswrapper version 1.28 loaded (preempt=no,smp=no)
usb 2-2: reset full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2
ndiswrapper: driver aeiwlnic (,02/12/2003, 2.01.02) loaded

wlan0: ethernet device 00:20:e0:d0:48:95 using NDIS driver aeiwlnic, 1668:6097.F.conf
ndiswrapper (set_auth_mode:664): setting auth mode to 3 failed (C0010015)
wlan0: encryption modes supported: none
usbcore: registered new driver ndiswrapper

#ndiswrapper -l
installed drivers:
aeiwlnic driver installed, hardware (1668:6097) present

it's all OK, iwconfig, etc works fine..

BUT THEN I JUST ..


#reboot

and after it..

#lsusb
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

#dmesg
...
usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2
usb usb3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usb 2-2: device descriptor read/64, error -110
hub 3-0:1.0: USB hub found

usb 2-2: device descriptor read/64, error -110
usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 4
usb 2-2: device not accepting address 4, error -110
usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 5
usb 2-2: device not accepting address 5, error -110

#ndiswrapper -l
installed drivers:
aeiwlnic driver installed

what to do? what am i doing wrong? how not to lose device?

ps. if i uninstall ndiswrapper and then echo Y > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/old_scheme_first after rebooting it will find device, but there's no ndiswrapper!

thx in advance, sorry for my bad english
