Kim,

Well I had to futz with the patch a little to get it to apply to the newer Hijack source, but it seems to be working now. The timeout on AC mode is really large though, I am going to try to tweak your timeout number a little bit so that AC boots don't take so long.

So how tough was it to replace the AC adaptor socket? Is the part an easy one to find? I'm not a soldering champ or anything, but if it's an easy solder job, I'd like to fix it.

Also, I noticed that the behavior is a little different, in that when I put my empeg in the dash with the engine off, it powers up, rather than waiting for the accessory line to go high. That's to be expected given the nature of the power connector failure. However, does this same problem keep the empeg from powering down when the standby timeout is exceeded? One of the main reasons I want the in-car mode to be DC is so that my empeg doesn't drain my battery if I leave it in the car. I guess I'll give it a shot later by changing the timeout, but I was thinking that I might have problems with it not powering down, given that the power socket is flaky.

Anyway thanks for this code, it's definitely a start, and I'm not sure if I'd be able to do the power socket myself.
