I'm reading my boot logs, at /var/log trying to understand why the boot process is taking so long.

I found that the system can't access many usb devices, but can't understand why.

Is there a way to stop Ubuntu from trying to access them?

Here are the lines:

/var/log# grep -r "usb_id" .
./boot.log:usb_id[716]: unable to
access
'/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb3/3-1/3-1.2/3-1.2:1.0/input/input7/mouse1'

Not sure if it helps, but here's the list of my PCI devices

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

It looks very much like you have a broken usb sub system. Although you do have a usb device plugged in, it might be a laptop and plugged in internally instead of a usb connector on the outside.

From the looks of things, it looks like some kind of touch device, maybe a touchpad or touchscreen. But it also has plenty of other inputs for buttons. Or course all of that may be bogus if the usb sub system in dying.
