I will not use trigeonometric functions, just a 90 byte lookup table. 8.8 or
16.8 is generic enough to use it for all sorts of things. Also, rounding is
easy.

That's no problem, since the data table from the driver is copied after
calling INSTALL, so INSTALL can change the value if necessary. Or the
programmer can put an average value into the field and forget about it :-)
