Hijack v300 - 14/11/2002 20:53

Ok, maybe its just me but ever since I uploaded the latest hijack, from v291 (Im a little late I know) to v300, I have noticed that the "restore visuals hack" has been a little weird. There have been about 5 or 6 instances in 2 days that it has booted up without restoring my visuals. It comes up as the original "list" visual. Im hoping that im not the only one?? I seem to have no other problems since the upgrade.

Running 2.0-beta 13

V300 has been restoring my visuals just great for a long time. The only time it fails is if I begin twiddling the volume knob immediately after bootup.

Have you checked this to see if it's any of those things?

I had this problem when I first received my empeg and installed hijack way back, like v233 or something. I dont remember. But I did change the config.ini when I previously had the problem and it has been working just fine. Now, with v300, I dont know what the problem is. I have done everything the same just as I have with the other hijack upgrades.

I will try manually selecting the text and visual modes from the player once again. But, like I said, this is the first upgrade since I originally solved the problem in config.ini that this has happened. I'll keep you posted.

Any other suggestions in the meantime?

Just the other stuff at the bottom of that FAQ entry.

I went back and took a look at my config.ini and found that I had this:

[output]
notify=1
[serial]
car_rate=115200

The first part of the FAQ entry:

[hijack]
suppress_notify=1

was not there for some reason or another. I added this to it and seem to have no problems now.

Thanks Tony!

Thing is, I think that's the default setting in the more recent Hijack releases, so adding it didn't change anything.

Its only rebooted about 3 times since I put that in there but it has been fine. Maybe Im delirious.
