* OHCI or UHCI depending on your USB controller. You can find that out by running lspci (from PCI Utils), and one of the lines should be you USB controller, and it should say either OHCI or UHCI on that line. Intel and VIA boards use UHCI, all of the rest use OHCI. These are for USB 1.1. * ECHI, for USB 2.0. Lots of devices now are USB 2.0 devices, and your motherboard should support EHCI, unless it's a pre-2004 motherboard. * xHCI, for USB 3.0. Yes, it's out there (right now, the driver is experimental), but it's not very widespread for now (the only motherboards that I know of that support USB 3.0 are very recent Gigabyte Tec. motherboards, ie: the ones that advertise USB 3.0 on the box), but if you have one of these newer Gigabyte boards, I'd say to enable it, you'll thank youself later in the future.
