In that case we can only wait for new kernel in which the problem is solved, or what?

Guys, I think it's time for a Red Hat bugzilla report: would someone who
has the hardware please file one?
It might be useful to give the output of /sbin/lsusb for the device in
question (you could always Google the device ID against "2.6.15" and see
if anyone else has encountered this).
If anyone is confident with compiling kernels from source, it would be
great if they could compile a standard 2.6.15 and submit this to the
kernel.org bugzilla, too.
It sounds as though the problem is widespread enough to need some
attention.
Thanks,
James.
