That red LED is sadly not a PSU indicator, but the overvoltage indicator. This usually can mean 2 things: 1) your board is broken and need an RMA 2) your 5V supply delivers more than 5.4V Case 2) should be easy to work around, case 1) is slightly more involved. regards, Koen -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iD8DBQFNlKcdMkyGM64RGpERAm3VAKCR/t8rpi7Xx6VtxarAbkwXunaqewCfaEAT iDt//0cubb98VRHaekI13Us= =K2PC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-devel mailing list Angstrom-distro-devel@linuxtogo.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-devel
