- Hi there,
-
- My clock on my A3000 goes 32 seconds to fast in an hour,
- which means more that one second in 2 minutes, and I
- think this is just too much!!
- I have a temporary solution with a crontab which does
- every hour a setclock load, but I'm sure there must
- be a better solution!!
-
- The tick signal to the CIA comes from the vsync because
- I'm using a PC powersupply, and before that time, I used
- this already because my original PS gave me way too many
- ticks.
-
- I figured out (just calculated) that vsync gives me 4 ticks
- too many in 9 seconds. Is it possible too adjust this
- via some sort of system hack (substract 4 ticks every 9*50+4
- ticks) or something, or is there already something like
- that available?
-
- Many thanx already for any answer
-
