I would suggest the possibility of bad electrolytic caps in the computer. All you need is inconsistent ESR in caps to cause instability. See:  http://www.badcaps.net/

Try a Pi. I read that the U.K. hub runs on a Pi.  My node is on a Pi, but I know nothing.

I have not seen other reports of this. From what I read, the solution looks safe.

I may have found the resolution to this issue

First let me say that i am not a Linux expert.

i googled the kernel errors i was getting.

this solution was not directly related to this USB device or even a sound card, however i thought i would try it.

i created options.conf in /etc/modprobe.d

in options.conf i placed the line 

options usbcore use_both_schemes=y

saved then rebooted.

I no longer have the kernel errors and the system was stable overnight.

those who are more knowledgeable then i please let me know if i was barking up the right tree and or if what i did was ok to do.

Subject: Another node server having stability issues

Please can someone help me find the answer to make my server / nodes reliable.

The computer is a HP 5700 with one gig of ram.

it locks up and or sends clicking sounds with key-ups to the rest of the linked system and or stops responding.

I have re-installed DIAL cut back to one URI and it ran ok for several hours.

when i checked it this morning it was in failure again.

Any help appreciated.

below are some log outputs that may help in finding out what is wrong.
