Duplicating my comments from 188621...

Regarding the ohci_hcd / ssb issue, the required fix is CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD_SSB=n in kernel build config. This option, when enabled, makes ohci_hcd depend on ssb, but is only needed to support a USB controller that is found only in embedded devices (so not relevant to standard Ubuntu). As long as that option's set to y, ssb will be loaded whenever ohci_hcd is loaded, regardless of blacklisting or anything else.

In Mandriva's case, ohci_hcd was being loaded on all systems (even systems with no USB controller requiring the ohci_hcd driver) due to a change in mkinitrd. I don't know if this part also affects Ubuntu, but regardless, the above fixes the problem. Bug should be sent to your kernel devs.
