Thanks for your explanation.

There are more than 1 interrupt (but didn't the C64 have two? one IRQ and one NMI?), tied to

Yes, you'r right, I remembered it.


What exactly do you mean by "emulating the C64"? Do you want to get timer interrupts? In that case, how to do it depends on what kind of timer you have. Is this a PC? An old PC or a new one?

Yes, I want timer interrupt at classic x86 PC with Linux (or Windows).

Thank you,
