Ubuntu 8.04 não reconhece meus dispositivos usb (impressora, mouse, pen...)

[clown125]

Estou tentado migrar do windows para o linux, mas empaquei nisso,
e até agora não consegui achar nenhuma solução para meu problema.
Se alguém tiver alguma idéia do que pode estar acontecendo por favor me ajudem.
