They do work in either usb 2.0 or usb 3.0 ports
and they do work with cgminer and bfgminer
however cgminer needs you to change the driver into winusb for each and every stick you push in the hub with zadig
a warning though if you changed the driver it can be a pain to get it back onto the old driver, i found that out myself the hard way

Doesn't work with cgminer 3.2/3.3, but does work with cgminer 3.1.1 and the latest bfgminer, as well as BitMinter's Java client.

Does really these usb 3.0 hubs have problems? Maybe it is possible to plug  them in the usb 2.0 port and they would act like usb 2.0 hub, just with bigger amps? Anyone can confirm this?

New release: version 3.3.0, 24th June 2013

USB3 hubs continue to be problematic with USB devices for reasons that are still unclear. Since the devices in question that are problematic are all usb1.1, if you were looking to purchase a hub and use cgminer as your primary mining platform, please go with a USB2 hub instead. The problem only manifests with multiple usb1.1 devices on the USB3 hub (i.e. all icarus based devices). If you wish to use multiple devices on a USB3 hub and cgminer, version 3.1.1 which uses the old driver model works best.

IIRC, the Block Erupters use the Icarus driver, which doesn't work with USB3.0 hubs in CGMiner.
