While working with Classmate (toward the very end of Hardy), it was discovered that simply enabling USB_PERSIST is not enough. We need another patch[1] to get it to work correctly. However that patch doesn't quite work due to another patch[2] in the Hardy tree. Since getting this fixed in the short time was not possible, the USB Persist patch[1] did not make it into the Hardy release.
It is now being made available through the classmate PPA[3]. Adding that to your /etc/apt/sources.list should get you the new kernel when it is built. Also, I am currently not sure if eeePC will also require the CONFIG_MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME option set, but I suspect it will. [1]. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.usb.general/1899 [2].
