Hi, David, Thank you so much for your response.
I am not quite understand what you mean by "It's safe to leave that BIOS feature enabled, unless your BIOS is buggy in that area, since Linux turns it off later if you start up the "native" USB.". Does "native usb" mean the usb driver in linux kernel? If it does, then USB Emulation might not be turned off even when usb drivers have started up. Because I am using RTAI, an real time abstract interface. Its latency test program shows that usb emulation causes large latency.
