It could be an issue with a buggy BIOS trying to use the mouse and keyboard (HID devices) attached to the USB 3.0 host. Perhaps it changes the ACPI tables when it tries to use the USB 3.0 host controller, and accidentally overlaps the regions? But if your keyboard and mouse were under USB 2.0, maybe it will only map in the USB 2.0 host controller. > As suggested by Jonathan N.

Because those messages are harmless, and don't mean anything is *wrong* with the host controller. Even if there's no xHCI driver loaded, it seems that ACPI is noticing the conflict between the PCI registers and another region. So unloading the xHCI driver won't help your system boot. You'd need to get a fix into the ACPI subsystem to work around the conflict. I don't think any xHCI driver modification can help here. > 3.2.0-rc4-amd64 refuse to boot as soon as I plug my mouse to USB 3.0 > port (screenshot at [2]).
