Subject: [BUG][PATCH] kaffeine 0.8.8 USALS/GotoX problem
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2009 01:20:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090713232043.315370@gmx.net> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 721 bytes --]
There is a bug in DvbStream::gotoX in Kaffeine 0.8.8,
which is fixed by the attached patch.
Look for example at what happens when azimuth = 15.951. The
motor should be driven to 16.0 degrees, but when 15.951 is
rounded up with
if (USALS>0.5) ++rd;
the carries into the upper nibble of CMD2 and the lower nibble of
CMD1 are not handled properly. The result is CMD1 represents 0
instead of 16 degrees and CMD2 is undefined, being set by the
non-existent 11th element of DecimalLookup.
The patch fixes it, and I also took the opportunity to fix the
strange division by while loops.
Regards,
Hans
