Good reply. But I'm quite sure I have a version with the stuck jiffies fixed. And, it probbably wouldn't be so consistent? I'll re-flash with beta13 in a week (when I don't need the machine so much) if I haven't fixed it.
I seem to remember I've got one of the last hijack-versions which don't alter the waving tux bootup-logo :-)
