Hi, guys,

I have SYBA USB 3.0 4-port PCI-Express Controller Card, VIA VL800 Chipset Model
SY-PEX20103 and Seagate external USB-3.0 drive GoFlex Desk.

I have compiled from sources to the latest kernel 3.3.0-rc7
The drive works when connectd to USB-2.0, but the system does
not recognize the drive when connected to USB-3.0 port.
I see messages in /var/log/message "device descriptor read/8, error -110"

Here is relevant information:
