USB problem on ASUS

Hi folks

I have a following problem with usb on Debian Sarge (ASUS A6B00R
laptop):
I link to this port optic mouse and wireless keyboard.
After a couple of minutes (it's rather difficult to describe this time,
I would even say impossible because this problem sometimes occurs after
1 minute and sometimes after 40 minutes) mouse stops and the wireless
keyboard with it.
Laptop's touchpad and keyboard still work without any problems but when
I am trying to switch to text console (ctrl+alt+f1) computer hangs till
I disconnect mouse from usb port. I tried to put the mouse to port
again but it didn't work any longer (though the red under the mouse was
visible).
I am using the kernel (2.6.14.4) with HID driver built in (I've tried
to built it as module but it wasn't a solution).
I've checked two mice and I am pretty sure that mouse has nothing to do
with this problem.
I can even say it is not USB problem because on windows (I am forced to
work on it because of this problem Smile

it works fine.

Here is lspci output:
