Much searching produced this fix: I used synaptic to install usb-modeswitch and usb-modeswitch-data. During the installation, synaptic requested that the 10.04.3 LiveCD be inserted - I did that, and the installation continued. After the installation, rather than reboot, I shutdown, removing the LiveCD while power was still on. After shutdown, I removed the unit's power cord, waited a few seconds, plugged it back in, and restarted the computer. Viola, all the usb ports are functioning properly!
Why the order of battle above, I don't know; but, it worked for me.
