Package: udev Version: 169-1 Severity: normal Udev is taking around 15 secs to detect and configure my mouse. If you take a look at my bootchart, you see a big hole: http://i.imgur.com/whbA8.png . That hole is caused by udev trying to figure out my Steelseries XAI mouse. This ( http://imgur.com/7tSVP.png ) is the same bootchart with the mouse unplugged. You can see that when I plug it, a modprobe runs and takes about 15 seconds. I don't see any weird module loaded for the mouse afterwards (hid, usbhid and that's it), so the modprobe is pointless (?).
Here's the dmesg output (at loglevel 9) after booting my PC without the mouse and pluggin it in: [ 30.892447] SysRq : Changing Loglevel [ 30.896441] Loglevel set to 9 [ 42.700013] usb 5-1: new full speed USB device number 2 using uhci_hcd [ 42.877032] usb 5-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1038, idProduct=1360 [ 42.886016] usb 5-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=2 [ 42.894967] usb 5-1: Product: SteelSeries Gaming Device [ 42.903794] usb 5-1: Manufacturer: Ruling Technologies Sdn.
