Ok, considering that the usb subsystem hangs while initializing if you've got
that device plugged in, this sounds like a kernel bug. Can you include the full
kernel boot log (possibly in /var/log/kern.log) so we can see what's being
initialized before usb? My guess is that acpi is screwing something up related
to usb resources, or you've happened upon a bug within either the usb subsystem
or your specific usb driver.
