Re: [preview] VIA IDE driver v3.11 with vt82c686b UDMA100 support

2001-01-17 Thread Vojtech Pavlik
Hi! The macro is defined as (in your symbols): (((t)-1)/(T)+1) The same macro is used both in 2.1e (2.4.0 driver) and in 3.11 (686b-capable driver). If you minimize the parentheses, you'll get: E = (t-1)/T + 1 Which gives the correct answer. We need E*T >= t. Vojtech On Wed, Jan 17, 2001 at
