I am running i386 Ubuntu 10.04 with this error. Neither lsusb nor ndiswrapper will run without freezing up and staying frozen. This also effects the ability to System -> Administration -> System Testing, as this will freeze and never continue. I tried to install a Compaq W200 card and this might have been a side-effect of this operation (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/CompaqW200). Also, the instructions to get the W200 failed for me.
