Because I needed to file taxi a large non-music file, I finally installed Hijack V.340 in my player. I think I might have been the last non-Hijack user in the known universe.

It did its job, allowed me to taxi the file, but I have had to remove Hijack and go back to the stock kernal.

The problem? With Hijack installed, about once out of every three or four times I booted the player in the car, it would start up in A/C mode instead of D/C mode. No fader (which I don't use anyway) but also no player shut-down when turning off the ignition. The "Force A/C-D/C Mode" setting was definitely set to "Normal".

The player works perfectly in every regard with the stock kernal, both in-car and plugged into A/C.
