echo host > /sys/class/usb_host/usb_host1/device/mode

If those work, add them into rc.local (above exit 0) and run:
chmod +x /etc/rc.local

I have never had to do any of that short of the last line to get my USB keyboard to work out of box with Deblet.

I think Stskeeps removed the USB networking module by default.. but I'm not sure. All I know is once I run the echo host > command.. my usb keyboard flies beautifully.
