Hi and welcome. To me it sounds like both problems have the same issue. Try Zenith432's USB driver, it should manage your USB ports correctly.

 

I would recommend you to install OS X by yourself and not use any distributions. They often install many things you don't actually need and slow down your system.

This is a very good guide for example: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/280756-guide-the-all-in-one-guide-to-vanilla-os-x-including-chameleon-dsdt-for-beginners-updated-for-mavericks/

Hello

Welcome and thanks for liking our forum, in here has serious people working to better it

First, We don't give support to distro... currently give support to distro is a waste time to you and to who will help you. Because never you'll get a hack 99% with distro, with retail installation you can have a jack almost 99%.

I gave to you via PM a sollution to install OSX retail...

I think this mobo has UEFI... just a guess...
