Any other numbers people know? > 18.2 Hz is legacy stuff, http://wiki.osdev.org/Programmable_Interval_Timer- but the particulars of an SMM implementation might just as well be a copy-paste error, for all I know. An OHCI driver might use a timer tick to recover after a timeout. The USB spec doesn't specify all the timeouts, though multiples of 100ms are common (so a ~10HZ timer might be useful). Hope that helps, David
