I expect some (older) motherboards don't support USB2.0 at all.  The ASUS 
links provide "horse's-mouth" info about your motherboard like a PDF of the 
owner's manual.  Aside from being handy to have around, I expect the manual 
will tell you if your motherboard hardware supports USB2.  This is the 
question I would answer before trying to get it working in Linux.

Just my $0.02
