Seems doubtful it is a hotplug problem if the module load is hanging your
system.

Have you seen the REPORTING-BUGS file?

Testing 2.6.9-rc3 and 2.6.8.1 might help. You should followup on
linux-usb-devel. google based on your hardware for other failure reports, and
also search usb-devel for your hardware, here is a decent archive:

http://news.gmane.org/gmane.linux.usb.devel

usb-devel will want lspci -v output, see the kernel source REPORTING-BUGS
for details.

And maybe try getting sysrq process trace output, assuming the system is
not absolutely dead,  see kernel's Documentation/syrq.txt, here is current
bk version online:

http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/anno/Documentation/sysrq.txt@1.9?nav=index.html|src/|src/Documentation

The above might require a serial line to capture the relevant details.

Have fun.
