USB can use interrupts, as a gander at the Hardware information thingie in Yast will show you. Each of your controllers has an interrupt assigned.
USB knows interrupt transfers but it doesn't know interrupts in the way we are used to. See http://www.embeddedsys.com/subpages/resources/images/documents/InterruptsAnd... for a good description. USB devices *must* be polled by the host controller, the rate of which is established at enumeration time with limits as described in the document.
Interesting read. This is why we have made our own little dongles to which we attach various devices. These time stamp (or the equivalent) things and then pass them on the ethernet to the collection systems. This way we have everything synchronized to within 1 wheel pulse (< 0.9mm) of vehicle movement.
