After blowing gobs of dust out of the way, I started plugging, and sure enough one of them recognizes the cybook.
I never had any idea that the ports were different. I figured if I tried one, they'd all be the same. I mean, they ARE directly in the computer, not external as some people had mentioned.
But anyway. There you go. The saga of learning to try every single port.
Thanks for everyone's help.

HOORAY!!! I *WON* the PRIZE!!! Now, please tell me, what did I win???
(I'm hoping for a Booby Prize!
)
But what really makes me happy is that you've found a USB port which will recognize your Cybook - and that you can now use your Cybook as intended! Way to go!
Have fun reading.
