Katagoto,

I suspect a USB power issue. Please post the contents of /proc/bus/usb/devices ensure you keyboard is listed there.

Overloaded USB ports can do several things depending the vendor these range from

    Just working anyway
    Shutting down, so no devices connected to the overloaded root hub work.
    Load shedding so that only some devices work
    Shutting down and restarting every few seconds

It sounds like you are in the last group. I don't understand why it works with Urban Terror though.

Katagoto,

/proc/bus/usb/devices needs the usb filesystem option in the kernel. lsusb -v provides similar information.
What I want to do is to work out the power needed from each of your USB root hubs to power all connected devices.

A root hub is normally a pair of stacked USB sockets. Each root hub is permitted to supply 500mA total before funny things start happening.

Try your keyboard as the only thing connected to a single pair of USB sockets. Your Bus 002 has a lot of devices connected.
Code:
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0020 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 041e:0401 Creative Technology, Ltd
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 046d:08b2 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Pro 4000
Bus 002 Device 005: ID 046d:c068 Logitech, Inc. G500 Laser Mouse
Bus 002 Device 006: ID 046d:c318 Logitech, Inc. Illuminated Keyboard
The QuickCam Pro 4000 needs a lot of power, the illumination in an illuminated keyboard is a lot for USB to supply too.

Move the keyboard around until lsusb shows it has a bus to itself, other than the root hub.

Which ebuilds do you use ?

I made a diff of my lspci -vv :
Code:
# diff usb_normal usb_anormal
326,327c326,327
<    Port 1: 0000.0103 power enable connect
<    Port 2: 0000.0100 power
---
>    Port 1: 0000.0100 power
>    Port 2: 0000.0103 power enable connect
1384c1384
< Bus 001 Device 005: ID 046d:c318 Logitech, Inc. Illuminated Keyboard
---
> Bus 001 Device 008: ID 046d:c318 Logitech, Inc. Illuminated Keyboard


For your help,
By advance,
Thanks

Katagoto,

Your keyboard says
Code:
MaxPower              300mA
so its not likely to be a USB root hub going into power limit too soon.

What USB drivers do you use in the kernel?
Put your kernel .config file on a pastebin site please.

Katagoto,

Code:
CONFIG_USB_DEBUG=y
should be off. It generates large amounts of logspam and sometimes interferes with the normal operation of some devices.

Code:
CONFIG_USB_XHCI_HCD=y
# CONFIG_USB_XHCI_HCD_DEBUGGING is not set
CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD=y
CONFIG_USB_EHCI_ROOT_HUB_TT=y
CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED=y
all looks good. Thats USB3 supppot and USB2 support with Transaction Translation to take care of USB1 traffic too.[/code]

Code:
CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD=y
CONFIG_USB_UHCI_HCD=y
should be off. These are drivers for USB1
The Transaction Translation above is preferred.

Fix your kernel settings with make menuconfig then rebuild[/code] and reinstall your kernel.
