It might be the power supply. (check with a voltmeter?) I have some  
spare iBook power supplies with the same connector - they'd be enough  
to charge the battery or to run the machine (but not to charge the  
battery and run the machine at the same time).

Or it might be the connector inside the machine - on some models of  
iBook these would come adrift after a time since they were only  
attached by soldered tags.

If you want to try one of the iBook adapters, just call by to pick one  
up. Email directly if you don't have my address.
