No error message apperas in your mail too.

Unlikely - USB2 is just a revision.
If it's a high speed device (which most intermix with being USB2
because USB2 introduced high speed) then the device may not work with
a full speed capable controller.
But in your case it already said to be umass compliant so that's not
an issue.

Is there any more debug output?
If not then add USB_DEBUG to your kernel and repeat.
